2013 RAV4 transmission problems

Recommended Posts

Hello, I want to upgrade to a RAV4 so I can pick the kids up from school. I'm looking at a 2nd hand 2013 or 2014 RAV4. After searching the net, the 2013 model stands out as having issues with the automatic transmissions becoming damaged and then blowing up. From what I have gleaned from user's accounts, this is due to the ECO mode causing this damage. See link below.

What I want do know: can any one tell me what auto trans is causing the problem ?. CVT or Sports Automatic ?

Cheers
