2019 Toyota RAV4 2.5L Hybrid electric · WM19 YSG

The Toyota RAV4 presents a stable and improving mechanical trend, culminating in a fully clean pass on 19 November 2025 at 59,658 miles with zero defects recorded. Earlier advisories concerning rear brake pad wear and tyre perishing flagged in March 2025 were evidently addressed before the subsequent autumn test, indicating attentive remedial work by the current keeper. The vehicle has covered approximately 8,500 miles per year since registration, which is entirely typical for a seven-year-old family SUV. The mileage progression is consistent, rising from 32,225 miles in February 2023 to 59,658 miles by November 2025, with no anomalous gaps suggesting prolonged standing or sudden high-mileage accumulation. The record is well-populated across the past three years, giving a reliable picture of recent use and upkeep. Buyers should still verify the condition of the rear braking system closely. The March 2025 test flagged rear brake pads wearing thin at 55,900 miles, meaning the current pads have seen roughly 3,700 miles of use since replacement or inspection. Check for uneven disc scoring and caliper slider function. The advisories on the nearside rear tyre noted cracking and perishing alongside a child seat obstructing the adult belt inspection; confirm the belt webbing runs freely and the tyre sidewall remains sound with no renewed deterioration. The front windscreen washer defect recorded during the March 2024 failure was rectified on the same day, so washer jets and fluid delivery should be tested for even spray pattern and adequate pressure. Given the clean pass in late 2025, structural corrosion does not appear to be a concern at this mileage, yet an underbody inspection around suspension mounting points and subframes remains prudent before purchase.
