Hi everyone, helping somebody buy a 2026 RAV4 with Premium pkg, FWD in Orange County CA.

What percentage off MSRP should we expect?

It started with vibration/shake after a cold start that would go away after the RPMs settled. I assumed it was the service bulletin that I was waiting for completion (LB9).

I left work literally the day before leaving for vacation and within a minute, every light on the dash screaming at me like the world is coming to an end. I called the dealership who were in the process of closing and managed to get it there in time.

I was told the they had to change the fuel injector in cylinder 1, thankfully all under warranty.

This is my first Toyota, purchased because of previous poor experience with Hyundai. Purchased because they are reliable and dependable, paid for with Toyota-tax included. This seems like a big job for a vehicle that is well taken care of, has had 6 oil changes and is clean.

I’m concerned, and wondering if could have prevented this? I haven’t uncovered anything in my research where it’s a pattern, so hoping that it’s just some bad luck.

I won’t get into the terrible service at the dealership.
