I OWN A 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA AND MY PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT OPEN ELECTRONICALLY OR MANUALLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I CARPOOL AND HAVE TO LET THE CHILDREN OUT ON THE STREET SIDE.

THIS IS AN ON GOING PROBLEM WITH THE SIENNAS. *TR

2005 TOYOTA SIENNA POWER SLIDING DOOR PROBLEM - IN THE SPAN OF LESS THAN A YEAR BOTH CABLES SNAPPED. 2ND OWNER, FIRST OWNER TRAVELING BUSINESSMAN, SO MILEAGE IS HIGH (108K) BUT SLIDING DOORS WERE SELDOM USED UNTIL MAY 2009. DOORS ARE NOW QUITE DANGEROUS AS THEY SOMETIMES DON'T LOCK OPEN. 11 YEAR OLD OFTEN CAN'T OPEN THE DOOR MANUALLY HIMSELF BECAUSE HANDLES ARE FUSSY. 4 YEAR OLD COULD EASILY BE PINNED BETWEEN DOOR AND FRAME. GREAT CONCEPT BUT POOR DESIGN MAKES AN EXPENSIVE FEATURE DANGEROUS AND WORTHLESS. *TR
