WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH OUR DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR. IT STARTED OF NOT OPENING UP WHEN HANDLE WAS PULLED, NOW IT OPENS BUT DOESN'T CLOSE AUTOMATICALLY.

AT VARIOUS TIMES, THE SLIDING DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE WHEN THE POWER BUTTON IS ON. I HAVE RECEIVED A CARD TO GET THIS FIXED AS SENSORS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN A PARKING SPACE. IT IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW.

UNEVEN WEAR TIRES. I BOUGHT A USED TOYOTA SIENNA LAST YEAR JAN OF 2018 WITH BRAND NEW SETS OF TIRE. AFTER 20K MILES, IT WAS DOWN TO 3MM AND HAVE IT REPLACE. I WAS SEARCHING FORUMS AND FOUND OUT THAT EVERYBODY HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME. IT WAS A BAD ENGINEERING OF THE VAN. I DID THE ALIGNMENT AFTER I GOT THE VAN BUT I STILL EXPERIENCED THE UNEVEN WEAR. I ALSO BALANCED THE TIRES EVERY TIME I FEEL MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKING. THERE MUST BE A DEFECT ON THE VAN AS I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. TWO OF MY TIRES WAS BALD ON THE OUTER SIDE. MOST PEOPLE THAT OWNS SIENNA SAID THAT EVERY 20K MILES, THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THEIR TIRES AND I AGREE WITH THEM.

2015 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE 44,802 MILES. HEAR CLUNK NOISE WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL DURING LOW SPEED OR STATIONARY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND EXCESSIVE CLEARANCE BETWEEN INTERMEDIATE SHAFT AND RACK AND PINION MATING TEETH CAUSING THE NOISE. THEY RECOMMEND TO REPLACE THE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT AND QUOTE ME ALMOST $800 FOR IT FOR PARTS AND LABOR. I DECLINED. I AM SURPRISED THIS IS HAPPEN TO TOYOTA, THE REASON I BOUGHT TOYOTA IS BECAUSE ITS RELIABILITY. IF I KNOW THINGS GOING TO BREAK JUST AFTER THE WARRANTY IS OVER, I WON'T BUY TOYOTA. THERE ARE OTHER BRANDS CHEAPER BRAND THAT DO THAT. AFTER I TALK TO MY MECHANIC, HE SAID THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS A LOT, EVEN THE OEM REPLACEMENT PART WON'T LAST LONG 40-50K MILES. FOR ME IT SEEMS LIKE A DESIGN ISSUE OR JUST A CHEAPLY MADE PART.

MY VEHICLE WAS RECENTLY STOLEN. IT WAS RECOVERED AS A CRASHED ABANDONED VEHICLE BY THE GLEN RIDGE POLICE DEPARTMENT (CASE #19-20437). THE VEHICLE SUFFERED AN APPARENT MAJOR FRONTAL COLLISION BUT THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY (SEE IMAGES). I AM REPORTING THIS FAILURE FOR YOUR INVESTIGATIVE REFERENCE. I HAVE NO FURTHER DETAILS AS IT WAS NOT IN MY POSSESSION WHEN THE COLLISION TOOK PLACE.

PURCHASED MY SIENNA IN FEBRUARY, 2019 WITH 41K MILES. DAYS AFTER PURCHASE, I BROUGHT A NOISE TO THE DEALERSHIPS ATTENTION AND WAS TOLD IT WAS ROAD NOISE. FAST FORWARD TO JUNE, 2019 AND THE NOISE IS WORSE. MY DRIVER'S SIDE STRUT IS BLOWN AT 44K MILES. FINDING A REPLACEMENT HAS BEEN A HASSLE. THIS PART IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY TOYOTA FOR REPLACEMENT. CURRENTLY WAITING AND HOPING THE BACKORDERED STRUTS SHIP TO ME SO I CAN GET IT REPLACED. ALSO, DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED REPLACING ONE STRUT. COMMON SENSE DICTATES THAT YOU ALWAYS REPLACE STRUTS IN PAIRS, OTHERWISE YOU WILL DRIVE A LOPSIDED VEHICLE AND CAUSE MORE TROUBLE DOWN THE ROAD.

RECALL ISSUED FOR POWER SIDE DOORS OPENING ON THEIR OWN WHILE DRIVING. WAS CORRECTED, BUT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. DEALER INFORMED US THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET THE OPENING CORRECTED. IS TOYOTA OR THE CONSUMER RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENT FOR THE SECOND, THIRD OR FOURTH REPAIR?

WHEN I'M WAS DRIVING THE LIGHT KEEP ON BLINKING SAYING MY TRUNK WAS OPEN, MY SIDE DOOR WAS OPEN, MY KEY IS NOT NEARBY. SOMETIMES MY RIGHT SIDE SLIDING DOOR IN THE BACK CANNOT CLOSE AUTOMATIC. BRING TO THE DEALER THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE. WHICH IS A RIPE OFC. I EVEN HAVE IT ON VIDEO WHEN IT HAPPEN . HOSELTON DEALER TOLD ME THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND WANT TO CHARGE ME MONEY FOR IT. I GOT VIDEO FOR THEM TO SEE STILL THEY WON'T WANT TO DIAGNOSE IT. I HATE THAT DEALSERSHIP. NEVER WANT TO PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THERE. ONCE IT OUT THE THERE LOT THEY DON'T CARE OR PAY ANY ATTENTION TO WHAT IS GOING ON ANYMORE EVEN YOU PURCHASED A WARRANTY FROM THEM.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS AND CURVING RIGHT, THE STABILITY CONTROL ACTIVATED THE BRAKES. THE CAR WAS NOT SPEEDING AND THE ROADS WERE DRY. IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN ONE TRIP. THE BRAKING ACTION MADE IT DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE THE TURN. PLUS THE DECREASE IN SPEED WAS A DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS PLUS THE CAR BEHIND US. OTHER CURVES DID NOT ACTIVATE THE STABILITY CONTROL SO IT WAS A GUESS AS TO WHEN AND IF THIS WOULD HAPPEN. DID MAKE IT BACK SAFELY.
