2004 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

IMMEDIATELY AFTER TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION WHILE DRIVING, IT PULLS BACK IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION IN A JERKING MOTION. I HAVE TO HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTLY AT EVERY TURN AND ANTICIPATE THE JERKING OF THE WHEEL SO I DO NOT CROSS OVER TO THE WRONG SIDE OF THE ROAD OR OFF THE ROAD. I TOOK MY VAN TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AT MY LOCAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE UNIVERSAL SHAFT WAS CORRODED AND NEEDED FULLY REPLACED. BOTH JOINTS WERE RUSTED AND STIFF WHICH IS CAUSING THE ERRATIC MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING DURING TURNS. *TR

MY 2004 TOYOTA SIENNA HAVE A NOISY STEERING AND STIFF STEERING IN COLD WEATHER WHEN TURNING AT LOW SPEEDS. *TR

THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING REGULARLY FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS: TRACTION CONTROL SEIZES CONTROL OF CAR WHEN TRAVELING ANYWHERE FROM 35-65MPH, BUT IT HAPPENS MOST FREQUENTLY ON FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60MPH. THE CAR IS USUALLY ON A GRADUAL CURVE BUT IT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING ON A STRAIGHTAWAY. VEHICLE BECOMES DIFFICULT TO CONTROL, STEER, ACCELERATE, LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIGHT UP AND A TERRIBLE NOISE ENSUES. ONE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND TWO TOYOTA DEALERS HAVE ATTEMPTED TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. WHEN TRACTION CONTROL IS MANUALLY TURNED OFF AT ENGINE POWER-ON, THE LIGHTS STILL LIGHT UP SHOWING IT IS ATTEMPTING TO SEIZE CONTROL, AND IN ONE INSTANCE, CONTROL WAS SEIZED DESPITE THE SYSTEM SUPPOSEDLY BEING SHUT DOWN. IT IS TERRIFYING FOR THE DRIVER AS WELL AS ANY PASSENGERS. *TR

PASSENGER REAR SLIDING AUTOMATIC DOOR'S CABLE FRAYED. CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY STATED THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND IT WOULD BE COVERED AT NO CHARGE.
