2006 TOYOTA SIENNA REAR HATCHBACK SHOCK FAILURE CAUSING REAR DOOR TO SLAM DOWN SO HARD IT SHATTERED THE GLASS. TOYOTA SAID THE SHOCKS ARE DEFECTIVE AND WILL BE REPLACED FOR 6 YEARS UNLIMITED MILES. THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD AS THE DOOR IS VERY HEAVY! ALL UNITS SHOULD BE REPLACED BEFORE PEOPLE ARE HURT OR KILLED. TOYOTA #[XXX] THEY REFUSE TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGED WINDOW BUT WILL REPLACE THE SHOCKS.

OUR 06' TOYOTA SIENNA FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT WON'T RETRACT. DEALER SAYS IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN OUR 02 TOYOTA SIENNA AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN MY 1995 TOYOTA BACK SEAT ON BOTH WINDOW SEATS. IN 1996. *TR

2006 SIENNA MANUAL REAR HATCH LIFT\STRUTS ARE NO LONGER WORKING. HAVE TO MANUALLY HOLD THE DOOR UP, WHICH IS VERY HEAVY. WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST $270 FOR ONE SIDE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATE SPEEDS OF 40 MPH, THE AUTOMOTIVE SKID CONTROL ACTIVATED WITHOUT WARRANT AND WOULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO DRIVE AS IF IN NEUTRAL. WHEN THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR, ALL WARNING LIGHTS WOULD ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING YET THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 72,000.

I OWN A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA VAN AND THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. THE SLIDING AUTOMATIC DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY ON A CONSISTENT BASIS. IT REQUIRES ASSISTANCE TO CLOSE AND WHEN SHUT, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE FULLY/SAFELY LATCHED. WE CAN HEAR MORE ROAD NOISE NOW THAT BEFORE. WE CONTRACTED THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VAN AND THEY KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT THE DOOR MOTOR WAS STARTING TO FAIL AND WE WERE TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED WITHOUT REPLACEMENT. WE WERE QUOTED $1800 TO REPAIR WITHOUT ANYONE EVEN WANTING TO LOOK AT THE PROBLEM. THEY INDICATED THAT THIS IS A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VANS. AFTER REVIEWING SOME WEB POSTINGS ON THIS PROBLEM, I AM IN THE SAME BOAT AS A LARGE AMOUNT OF CONSUMERS THAT HAVE PURCHASED THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR OF VAN. SAFETY IS OF UTMOST CONCERN TO ENSURE MY CHILDREN ARE SAFELY RIDING IN THE PASSENGER AREA OF MY VAN. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS DOOR CLOSING PROBLEM COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR THE NECESSARY REPAIRS AND I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT BETTER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT, LEVEL DRY ROAD WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 58MPH. SUDDENLY CAR BEGAN TO DOWNSHIFT. ASSUMING TRANSMISSION PROBLEM I DISENGAGED CRUISE CONTROL AND CAR ALMOST CAME TO A STOP. I PUSHED GAS PEDAL AND DROVE IN LOW GEAR TO NEAREST PULL-OFF. DISCOVERED LEFT FRONT BRAKE WAS SMOKING. AFTER THINGS COOLED OFF I DROVE CAR IN LOW GEAR ABOUT 6 MILES TO LOCAL SERVICE STATION. MECHANIC FOUND ALL BRAKES LOCKED AND REMOVED ALL WHEELS. HE INSPECTED ALL ROTORS, CALIPERS BRAKE LINES, ETC AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS. (I HAD NEW BRAKES INSTALLED AT DEALERSHIP ABOUT 4 MONTHS EARLIER.) WHEN MECHANIC MANIPULATED LEFT FRONT CALIPER ALL BRAKES DISENGAGED. MECHANIC FOUND BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS NORMAL. I'VE DRIVEN CAR ABOUT 500 MILES SINCE PROBLEM OCCURRED WITH NO PROBLEMS. I DON'T USE CRUISE CONTROL OFTEN - AND HAVEN'T USED IT SINCE PROBLEM OCCURRED. I'M WONDERING IF PROBLEM IS WITH CRUISE CONTROL RATHER THAN BRAKES?? THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER IF IT HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY AT HIGHER SPEEDS! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHEN THE CONTACT OPENED THE HATCHBACK, IT CLOSED WITH FORCE ON HER BACK. SHE WAS NOT INJURED. SHE ALSO ALLOWED THE HATCHBACK TO CLOSE WHEN THE COMPLAINT WAS FILED IN ORDER TO DEMONSTRATE THE SOUND OF IT CLOSING. SHE NOTIFIED TOYOTA REGARDING A PREVIOUS RECALL FOR THE HYDRAULIC LIFT AND WAS INFORMED THAT WAS NOT RELATED TO HER YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 55,793.

I HAVE 2006 SIENNA LE. AIRBAGS SIGNAL IS ON AND OFF IN THE DASHBOARD. ITS JUST UNDER 30000 MILES AND 3+ YEARS. ITS REALLY FRUSTRATING AND AFTER DEEP RESEARCH IT LOOKS LIKE ALL THE OWNERS HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS. TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THIS ASAP. *TR

2006 TOYOTA SIENNA SURGE AND DECELERATION WHILE DRIVING. SEEMS THE VEHICLE CAN'T DECIDE WHICH GEAR TO GO IN. *KB THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SHIFT LATE AT TIMES.
