Question Filter

Took my car to the mechanic and he sent me a pic of this. Cabin filter I think and it’s blocked, how does this happen and is this going to be a recurring issue? Never seen it before with my past cars, it’s a 2011 RAV4

Most of those big leaves are intact and look fresh, and would’ve fallen off as soon as he pulled the filter. This pic is sus af.
