2022 Toyota RAV4

Front HVAC Blower Motor High Pitched Noise around 15khz frequency when fans are turned on. Causes discomfort to driver and passengers. Confirmed to be also heard by our local toyota dealership manager. Contacted toyota customer service about the issue and they are aware of the TSB that was issued but my vehicle is just out of the short warranty period to have it fixed according to Toyota. This issue seems to be common among online forums with this vehicle. The Sunvisors on the driver side and passenger side also sag and are very difficult to move up and down. Potentially a safety issue in the future if they fail to work properly when needing to block bright light such as the sun, no TSB issued from Toyota.

I have taken vehicle to Toyota service center numerous times and showed them what the vehicle is doing and they are telling me it’s normal. Its not normal when every bump, manhole, railroad tracks you hit in the road with your foot on the brake when your trying to slow down when the abs or traction control is activated and the car skids forward and comes close to causing a crash. When that is activated sounds like a electric grinding noise is activated. I only have videos no pictures

Yesterday while sitting in a drive thru, my Rav4 began shaking forwards and backwards a few times and then an error popped up saying Steering Power Low, Engine Off. At this point, I turned off my car and put it in park and it took a multiple times to get the car to power back on. This also threw a check engine light. After looking into this issue, we found other owners of 2019-2024 Rav4 also experience this issue and when the dealership runs their diagnostic they cannot find anything. We read it with a personal car code reader and had codes 7E8 and 7E9 but the dealership found nothing.
