2010 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT STARTED MAKING A CLUNKING SOUND WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL AND DRIVING A LOW SPEEDS. ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS NOW PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. SO MUCH PLAY THAT DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FEELS UNSAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA SIENNA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND MELTING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, HIS VIEW WAS OBSTRUCTED DUE TO THE GLARE FROM THE DASHBOARD. LONGO TOYOTA OF PROSPER (2100 W UNIVERSITY DR, PROSPER, TX 75078 (469) 850-6315) WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED INFORMATION ON REGARDING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE REGARDING THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY INFORMATION WAS SENT OUT IN 2016. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

DASHBOARD CRASH ITSELF AND STICKY. I ALWAYS USE WINDSHIELD SUN SHADE COVER. I ASKED LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER BUT IT IS NOT RECALL. *TR

EVERY TIME TURN THE STEERING IT MADE CLICKED FEELING LIKE STEERING SHAFT BEND? IT HAPPEN SINCE 2017 TO NOW. I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD NO LEAK OIL. PLEASE INVESTIGATION BEFORE ACCIDENT. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE RACK AND PINION SEAL STARTED LEAKING AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. HAD TO HAVE RACK AND LIONIZING, TIE ROD ENDS, AND LINKAGE REPLACED FOR OVER $1,100.

MECHANISM INSIDE RIGHT SLIDING DOOR CRACKED AND DOOR IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED. BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE THE PULLY WIRE THAT OPENS THE DOOR SNAPPED. BOTH DOORS NOW MALFUNCTIONED WITH ONE DOOR COMPLETELY SEALED CLOSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE HORN AND AIR BAG, ALONG WITH OTHER STEERING WHEEL FUNCTIONS, WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SPIRAL CABLE ASSEMBLY IN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS PERTAINING TO THE FAILURE; THEREFORE, THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SLIDING DOOR CABLE SNAPPED UNEXPECTEDLY CAUSING DOOR TO BECOME INOPPERABLE. IT IS NOW JAMMED SHUT AND WILL NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE, CAUSING A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS SECOND DOOR WHERE THE CABLE HAS SNAPPED AND INOPERABILITY OF DOOR COULD BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE IF PASSENGERS NEED TO EXIT. TOYOTA WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THE DOOR AND ASKS UPWARDS OF $2K TO REPAIR.

WHEN MAKING TURNS AT SPEEDS HIGHER THAN 30 MPH SOMETIMES ON THE FREEWAY OR ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING UP A HILL, THE SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT, VSC LIGHT AND ALARM SOUNDS AND OCCASIONALLY WILL AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATE THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM (EVEN WHILE YOU'RE STILL PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR) WHICH CAUSES YOU TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE TEMPORARILY. THE ABS ACTIVATION DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME, BUT WHEN IT HAPPENS, IT IS VERY SCARY. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AND TOYOTA CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. ONE PERSON STATED THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY ONCE HE REPLACED THE ENTIRE RACK.

BOTH BACK SLIDING DOOR CABLES SNAPPED. HAVE BEEN ADVISED THE MOTORS SIEZED CAUSING THE CABLES TO SNAP. NEITHER DOOR WORKS. DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR CAN ONLY OPEN 6 INCHES. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN EVENT OF EMERGENCY. MY CHILDREN CAN NOT GET OUT OF THE CAR AND CAN NOT OPERATE THE ONE DOOR ABLE TO MANUALLY OPEN. FIX HAS BEEN ESTIMATED AT $1900 PER DOOR. TOYOTA KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE. THEY ISSUED A CUSTOMER WARRANTEE ENHANCEMENT FOR IT BUT IT HAS EXPIRED. THEY REFUSE TO REOPEN IT. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS ON THE 2004-2009 MODEL YEAR AND CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR THIS FOR 2011-2018 MODELS BUT NOT THE 2010. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF TOYOTA SIENNA'S ON THE ROAD WITH THIS ISSUE AND IT IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AND TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT TOYOTA REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE 2010'S AND COVER THE COSTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
