DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR. CABLE HAS COME LOOSE. DOOR NO LONGER OPENS AND CLOSES WHEN PRESSING THE OPEN/CLOSE BUTTON. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. NOW IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO MANUALLY OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR. PASSENGER MUST NOW EXIT FROM PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZZARD.

SECOND FAILURE OF SLIDING SIDE DOOR WHEREBY CABLE THAT OPENS AND CLOSES THE DOOR AUTOMATICALLY MALFUNCTIONS.THE DOOR GETS JAMMED PARTWAY OPEN TRAPPING PASSENGERS INSIDE. THE ONLY WAY OUT IS TO CUT THE CABLE.

MY BOTH SIDE SLIDING DOORS ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL. I COULD NOT USE THE KEY FOB TO OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOORS. WONDER IF IT HAS ANY RECALL.

PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR. THE CABLE SNAPPED AND THE DOOR WOULD NOT FULLY OPEN.

2010 TOYOTA SIENNA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REAR POWER DOOR MALFUNCTION AND SEEKS REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED, BUT NOT FOR THE 2010 MODEL YEAR. UPDATED 09/11/017*JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA SIENNA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR DID NOT OPEN AND THE CABLE WAS HANGING OUT THE TRACK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER VANDERSTEIN TOYOTA IN ROCHESTER NEW YORK FOR A DIAGNOSIS. THE SLIDING DOOR CABLE FRACTURED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LAST YEAR, BUT IN THE RECENT FAILURE, THE LATCH WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED LAST YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE RECENT FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT THE VIN DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DRIVER SIDE POWER DOOR CABLE BROKE WHILE OPENING THE DOOR. CANNOT OPEN DOOR AT ALL NOW. HAVING TO PAY $2000 TO GET NEW CABLE AND MOTOR. LOTS OF SIMILAR POWER DOOR PROBLEMS RECORDED ON THE WEB. TOYOTA SHOULD SHARE REPAIR COST AS THE PARTS FAILURE OBVIOUSLY POSES SAFETY ISSUE IF NOT REPAIRED ASAP.

POWER SLIDING DOORS JAMMED IN THE CLOSED (OR PARTIALLY OPEN POSITION) AS THE DOOR CABLE GOT HUNG UP IN THE SLIDING MECHANISM. BOTH DOORS OF OUR VEHICLE ARE NOW AFFECTED. DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR FAILED TO OPEN FULLY IN JAN 2017 - IT OPENED ABOUT 4 INCHES AND WOULD STOP. PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR FAILED TO OPEN AT ALL IN MAY 2017, IT WOULD MOVE A FRACTION OF AN INCH WHEN TRYING TO OPEN AND THEN GET JAMMED. THE VAN HAS SEEN MODERATE USE, AND THE DOORS WERE OPENED WITH THE AUTOMATIC MECHANISM (USED THE BUTTON) OVER 99% OF THE TIME. THE WEAR ON THE DOOR OPENING MECHANISM WAS NOT CAUSED BY INAPPROPRIATE MANUAL OPENING. AFTER THE PROBLEM, IN BOTH CASES THE ONLY WAY TO BE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOORS WAS TO PHYSICALLY BREAK THE GUIDE CABLES - WHICH WAS DONE FROM OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS UNLIKELY TO BE DONE FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE DUE TO HOW THE PERSON WOULD NEED TO STAND AND THE STRENGTH THEY COULD GENERATE, ESPECIALLY DURING AN EMERGENCY EVENT. FIX FOR THE PROBLEM IS OVER $1000 FOR EACH DOOR. REMEDY FOR ME IS THAT I CUT THE BROKEN CABLES AND WE OPEN THE DOORS MANUALLY NOW. I BELIEVE THERE IS A RECALL THAT COVERS THIS PROBLEM FOR 2004-2007 SIENNAS, BUT HAS NOT BEEN EXTENDED TO COVER THE SAME MODEL FOR YEARS 2008-2010. SNIPPET OF THIS IS: CERTAIN 2004 TO 2007 MODEL YEAR SIENNA VEHICLES EXTENSION OF WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR POWER SLIDING DOOR CABLE ASSEMBLY THIS CONCERNS THE CABLE ASSEMBLY, NOT THE LATCH ASSEMBLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA SIENNA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY COVERS WERE FOGGY AND CREATED DULL ILLUMINATION AT A DISTANCE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY HAD A PROCESS TO SPRAY THE HEADLIGHT COVERS AND MAKE THEM ULTRAVIOLET, BUT THERE WAS NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHAT CAUSED THE ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT IT WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000.
