I called my contact at Aries Automotive and they informed me that the Aries Grille Guard part # AA2065 MAY interfere with the birds-eye-view monitoring system on your 2017 Toyota Rav4. Unfortunately, there is not a defiantly answer for you that was able to be provided from the manufacturer at this time. Aries is still currently researching the compatibility issues associated with grill guards and warning sensors on certain vehicles.

This is also the only grille guard we have confirmed to fit your vehicle at this time.

Has the manufacturer gotten more info on the possible forward collision sensor and adaptive cruise control interference yet? Or has any customer relayed information about issues with the system and the guard?

We haven't been able to confirm (or disprove) interference with those sensors, but I can say that it's really pretty likely that the grille guard would have some kind of affect on them. Any time you mount something to the front of the vehicle, it's going to interfere a bit with any parking or collision sensors. Sometimes these can be relocated if needed - you might check with a local Toyota dealer to see if they have any info on this.
