The vehicle has been in no accidents and has never been damaged. Initially, it was a slight misalignment in 2022 and would still latch once opened and closed, but over time, the liftgate itself became separated from the vehicle body and the hinges are visibly bent. Initially presumed the sensor was being blocked somehow as it wouldn\u2019t close as it lowered, but over time you could visibly see the alignment was off from the vehicle body. Now the tail lights no longer line up and there is large gapping along the top of the liftgate where it should meet the body of the car. Bent hinges were confirmed at a Toyota dealership and then confirmed at a body shop as well. The body shop informed me that they have seen and repaired this exact issue multiple times and recommended checking with the service center in case of any recalls or TBs. As of 2026 before repairs, the trunk is completely unusable as it has to be forced closed after use which threatens to compromise the structure of the vehicle. If the trunk cannot be latched or opened, it poses a safety hazard as a blocked means of emergency egress as well as a safety hazard of opening on the road if no longer able to latch.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"TOYOTA","productModel":"RAV4","manufacturer":"Toyota Motor Corporation"}]}]}
