2006 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

I BOUGHT A SET OF 4 DOUGLAS ALL-SEASON 215/65R16 98T SL TIRES AT WALMART. AFTER LESS THAN 4 MONTHS/600 MILES OF USE, 3 OF THE TIRES WERE DIAGNOSED AS SEPARATING INSIDE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD HAVE COST US OUR LIVES. THESE TIRES MUST BE RECALLED. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. IF YOUR VEHICLE SHAKES AT A MODERATE SPEED (BETWEEN 25-40MPH) AND YOU HAVE THESE TIRES THEN YOU SHOULD GET THEM REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. IT IS NOT THE BALANCE (I HAD THEM BALANCED TWICE) OR THE ALIGNMENT, IT IS A DEFECT IN THESE PARTICULAR TIRES.

STEERING RACK IS LEAKING AND THIS IS A DANGER TO PEOPLE A SERIOUS DANGER. PEOPLE WITH VANS USUALLY HAVE CHILDREN AND I AM READING OF ALL THESE COMPLAINTS WITH THE STEERING TACK LEAK. TOYOTA IS BEING ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. WE AS CONSUMERS NEED TO VOICE MORE BECAUSE THE MORE WE SPEAK AND VOICE OUR CONCERNS FOR OUR LIVES THE LESS COSTS EFFECTIVE IT WOULD BE FOR THEM TO IGNORE US. REMEMBER THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT WHO DIES FROM THEIR LACK OF CONCERN IT IS ABOUT HOW MUCH THEY MAKE AND I WANT A RECALL FOR THIS DEFECT!!!

STARTED VEHICLE 3 DAYS AGO AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND IT KEEPS BLINKING OFF AND ON AND NEVER SHUTS OFF. VAN HAS 118,289 MILES. NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE NOW.

THE REAR PASSENGER AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT WORK. IT WILL NOT WORK IN MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC MODE.

SIDE DOOR IS MALFUNCTIONING. HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH IT OPEN. GRANDDAUGHTER HAD TO MOVE TO REAR BECAUSE I COULDN'T GET IT SHUT AFTER SHE GOT IN. FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE. SON-IN-LAW HAD TO USE FORCE TO GET IT SHUT. HAVEN'T USED IN 3 MONTHS UNTIL I COULD AFFORD TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THERE WAS AN EXTENSION ADDED TO THE WARRANTY BUT SAID I WASN'T ELIGIBLE. $2,125 + TAX TO FIX!!!!

STEERING HAS HANDLED FINE SINCE I BOUGHT NEW MARCH 2006 FROM TOYOTA CAPITAL DEALER; 1ST REPORTED ON 2/16/13 AT 43,123 MILES SIENNA POWER STEERING RACK & PINION LEAKING--COST TO REPAIR $1,542.38 (WITH ALIGNMENT). HAVE NOT REPAIRED YET AS FLUID LEVEL HAS NOT CHANGED. POWER STEERING FLUID WAS REPORTED DIRTY ON 3/1/09 AT 22,321 MILES. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS LEAKING PROBLEM IS COMMON & HAS OCCURRED WITH OTHER 2006 SIENNA'S--PLEASE RECALL ALL THE 2006 SIENNA'S. ATTACHED IS CURRENT MECHANIC WITH PICTURE OF PROBLEM AT END OF REPORT.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ALL DAY. MADE A STOP AT A GROCERY STORE. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. *TR

AIR BAG WARNING CONTINUOUSLY FLASHES WHEN THE CAR IS ON. MECHANIC TRIED TO RESET IT BUT IT GOES RIGHT BACK TO FLASHING WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED. NO ACCIDENTS, THIS BEGAN AT 114,000 MILES. CONCERNED AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY ON IMPACT, OR WILL DEPLOY RANDOMLY BECAUSE IT IS FAULTY. THE VIN SHOWS THERE IS NO RECALL BUT ISN'T THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN HUNDREDS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM? *TR
