2016 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

I HAD CAR ACCIDENT TODAY AND GOT HI MY LEFT FRONT WND REALLY GOOD AND THE POLICE SEEN MY CAR'S AIR BAG DID NOT GO OFF-IT DIDN'T SHOWS UP.MY FACE GOT HITTED BY STEERING WHEEL.I WAS DRIVING ON CITY OF PUYALLUP WASHINGTON RUNNING 25-35MILES AN HOUR WHEN THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TOOK OVER IN FRONT OF ME TO CHANGE LANE TO THE LEFT.IT WAS A BIG IMPACT TO MAKE ME TURNED AND BOUNCED AWAY TO RIGHT SIDE.

POWER SLIDING DOOR CABLE SNAPPED. IT HAPPENED TO BOTH DOOR (RIGHT AND LEFT) ABOUT 6 MONTHS APART. HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOT NOT EVEN EXCESSIVE USE. THE FIRST TIME WAS AT A DEALERSHIP FOR VEHICLE SERVICE AND THEY FIX IT FOR FREE SINCE IT HAPPENED THERE EVEN THOUGH THEY SAID WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER. THE SECOND TIME WAS OVER THIS WEEKEND AND WHEN I SEARCH ONLINE, MANY PEOPLE EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM. POOR QUALITY CABLE (LINKAGE) FOR THE POWERED SLIDING DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A CEMENT BARRIER ON THE DRIVER SIDE WITHOUT WARNING. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT WHERE IT WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000.

MY 2016 TOYOTA SIENNA THAT HAS 16,000 MILES WAS PARKED AT HOME AND I WENT TO GO START IT AND IT STALLED. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO HENDRICK TOYOTA OF APEX, NC AND THEY TOLD ME THAT RODENTS CHEWED THREW THE WIRING AND IT WAS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND TO TOYOTA. I HAVE HAD ANOTHER TOYOTA PARKED IN WITHIN THE SAME PROXIMITY FOR OVER 15 YEARS. I HAVE NEVER HAD RODENT ISSUES WITH IT. I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. IIF THERE ARE MICE LIVING INSIDE THE CAR, THEY COULD BE LEAVING RAT DROPPINGS THAT COULD BE HARMFUL TO BOTH OF THEM. I AM ANGRY AND CONCERNED AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY, WHEN OTHER VEHICLES PARKED IN THE SAME LOCATION AREN'T EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT AUTO MANUFACTURERS IN ORDER TO GO GREEN ARE USING SOY BASED PRODUCTS ON WIRES INSTEAD OF PETROLEUM. THEY ARE USING SUGAR IN THEIR PLASTICS. RICE HUSKS IN THEIR INTERIORS. ALL THIS STUFF ATTRACTS RODENTS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! MY DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE SEEING AT LEAST 2 RODENT DAMAGED VEHICLES A WEEK. TOYOTA NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, CHANGE THE MATERIALS THEY USE, AND COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AGAINST TOYOTA FOR THIS ISSUE. HERE ARE TWO ARTICLES THAT DETAIL THE PROBLEM MYSELF AND OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS HAVE HAD - HTTP://CTWATCHDOG.COM/FINANCE/RODENTS-DAMAGE-CARS-BYCHEWING-ELECTRICAL-CONNECTIONS-TIPS-ON-HOW-TO-AVOID-COSTLYREPAIRS, HTTP://WWW.SYNLUBE.COM/INCREDIBLEEDIBLECAR1.HTM

VEHICLE IS 1.5 YEARS OLD, ABOUT 20K MILES, AND JUST RECEIVED WORD THAT WE'LL NEED 4 NEW TIRES @ $300/EA BECAUSE OUTSIDE WEARING IS OCCURRING. DEALER NOR MICHELIN TAKING RESPONSIBILITY OR WARRANTY, BOTH POINTING AT EACH OTHER FOR THE ISSUE. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE - WAS NOT DISCLOSED BEFORE PURCHASING THE SIENNA THAT TIRES WOULD ONLY LAST 20K MILES ON THIS VEHICLE.

WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE OFF, THE DASHBOARD INSTRUMENTS (SPEEDOMETER) ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO SEEN WHEN OVERCAST OUTSIDE (NO BACK-LIGHTING). THIS IS OUR 3RD SIENNA AND WAS NOT AN ISSUE WITH PAST MODELS (2011 & 2013). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE IT REQUIRE EYES OFF THE ROAD LONGER THAN NECESSARY IN ORDER TO READY THE INSTRUMENTS.

THE SIENNA EMISSIONS CONTROL DESIGN HAS AN INHERENT PROBLEM WITH ITS MECHANISM WHICH CANNOT BE DIAGNOSED PROPERLY AT THE SERVICE SHOP. MY 2008 WAS SERVICED ABOUT FIVE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, DURING WHICH THE CARBON CANISTER WAS REPLACED AT ALL OCCASIONS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ON THE DASHBOARD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT + TRAC OFF + VSC LIGHTS COME ON. IT INDICATES SOMETHING SERIOUS IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. PLEASE READ THIS WEB LINK FOR COMPLETE DETAILS. WHY IS THIS PROBLEM NOT A RECALL AS TOYOTA HAS NO INTENTION TO FIX IT ??? :( HTTP://TOYOTA-SIENNA-CANISTER-DEFECT.BLOGSPOT.COM/2017/10/THE-TOYOTA-SIENNA-2008-2016-CARBON.HTML TRULY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW SEAL COMES OUT WHEN YOU ROLL THE WINDOW DOWN. THE WINDOW THEN WILL AUTO GO BACK DOWN BECAUSE IT SENSES SOMETHING IN IT'S PATH (WHICH IS THE ACTUAL SEAL). I HAVE TO SLOWLY WORK THE SEAL BACK IN THE FRAME. THE DEALERSHIP MILTON MARTIN TOYOTA IMPLIED IT WAS BECAUSE I DID NOT KEEP MY WINDOW CLEAN ENOUGH. THEY HAVE GREASED IT,DIDN'T WORK. THEN THEY PUT A NEW SEAL IN, THAT IS COMING OUT NOW. AND NOW THEY ARE PUTTING ANOTHER NEW SEAL IN. THIS HAPPENED AT ABOUT 34K MILES.
