IN JULY OF 2011 TOYOTA SENT A NOTICE OF RECALL ON THE 2WD SIENNA VANS FOR A PROBLEM OF EXCESSIVE CORROSION OF THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER. THEY SAID THE REMEDY WAS UNDER DEVELOPMENT. IT IS NOW DECEMBER AND EVERY TIME I CALL TOYOTA THEY SAY THEY HAVE NOT YET DEVELOPED A REMEDY AND ARE WORDING ON IT. HEIR TEMPORARY SOLUTION WAS TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE AND PUT IT IN THE BACK OF THE VAN. TO ME A REASONABLE TIME FOR THIS TO BE RESOLVED WOULD BE 1-2 MONTHS, IT IS NOW GOING ON 5 MONTHS AND NO NOTICE OF RESOLUTION. I FEEL THAT MYSELF AND EVERYONE ELSE EFFECTED BY THIS RECALL NOTICE HAVE WAITED FAR TO LONG. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THE STEERING CAUTION LIGHT CAME ON AND THE STEERING WHEEL COMPLETELY LOCKED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO THE LEFT. BRAKES WHERE APPLIED TO SLOW DOWN VEHICLE. VEHICLE SHOWS NO RECALL FOR THIS AND TOYOTA HAS BEEN CONTACTED A FEW TIMES AND FEELS THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. CAR HAS BEEN PLACED ON COMPUTER AND SHOWS MANY FAULTY CODES, BUT THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, SINCE THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN. TOYOTA WILL FIX ELECTRICAL STEERING AT OUR COST, BUT NOT SURE IF THAT IS, IN FACT, THE ISSUE. SEEMS LIKE A COSTLY FIX TO NOT KNOW FOR SURE AND ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WOULD NOT BE CAUSED BY WEAR AND TEAR, RATHER BY A FAULTY ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. WE DRIVE OUR CHILDREN AROUND IN THIS CAR AND FEAR THE SAFETY OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. TOYOTA STATES THAT THEY HAVE NOT SEEN THIS ISSUE BEFORE. VERY SCARY AND WE FOLLOWED WHAT THE USER MANUAL STATES WHEN THIS SAFETY INDICATOR COMES ON TO CALL TOYOTA AND STOP DRIVING TO PREVENT A FATALITY. PLEASE HELP....2 MONTHS LATER AND NO SOLUTION. *TR

POWER SLIDING BACK DOORS ATTEMPTING TO OPEN WHILE DRIVING, STICKS IN PARTIAL OPENING. FEAR DOORS WILL OPEN AND KIDS WILL FALL OUT WHILE DRIVING. MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH SAME PROBLEM. COSTS ARE EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. *TR
