2006 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

MY 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA HAS SENSORS ON THE SLIDING DOOR TO ENSURE IT DOESN'T CLOSE AND INJURE PEOPLE. MY KIDS USUALLY STEP OUT AND OPERATE THE SLIDING DOORS BY THEMSELVES. BUT TWO DAYS AGO AFTER I PARKED THE CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY, MY FOUR YEAR OLD DAUGHTER'S FINGERS GOT STUCK IN THE DOOR WHILE SHE WAS CLOSING IT. THE SENSORS DID NOT WORK. HER FINGERS WERE STUCK IN THERE FOR ATLEAST 20 SECONDS UNTIL I OPENED IT. THE INJURIES WERE MINOR AND SHE IS DOING OK NOW, BUT I'M NOW CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY ESPECIALLY WHILE OPERATING THE DOORS. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA W/ APPROX 80,000 MI. DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND HARNESS NEED REPLACEMENT, BUT THE HARNESS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MARCH 2011. THEY OFFERED TO REPLACE JUST THE AIR BAG, BUT WOULD NOT GUARANTEE THAT THIS WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I AM FORCED TO EITHER TAKE A CHANCE AND SPEND MONEY ON JUST THE AIR BAG, NOT KNOWING WHETHER IT WILL WORK, OR TAKE A CHANCE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS WITH AN INOPERATIVE AIRBAG AND HOPE THAT I NEVER AM IN A SITUATION WHERE I NEED IT. I AM UNCOMFORTABLE WITH BOTH CHOICES. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT TOYOTA DOES NOT HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE. IF SO MANY PEOPLE ARE NEEDING THIS PART, WOULD THIS NOT NECESSITATE A RECALL? *TR

ON OCT 15, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING IN MY 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD MY AIRBAGS ARE DEFECTIVE AND THE SQUIB AND HARNESS WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER IT SINCE MY WARRANTY WAS 6000 MILES OVER, AND THEY SAID THEY WOULDN'T. SAID IT COULD COST AROUND $3000 FOR ME TO REPLACE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN A RECALL. *TR
