The passenger (manual ) sliding door became hard to open. The handle sticks and does not open on the first try. The handle then broke off completely leaving the door unsafe and unable to latch properly. We purchased a new handle from the dealer for a price of $95.00. We feel this specific car handle is not made to withstand the use of a sliding door or the weight of the door and will fail with continued use. You…

This is a progressively worsening problem, beginning in january 2003. The automatic sliding door has stopped working properly. It opens at random, with or without the engine on. When the last incident occurred, it opened at highway speeds! The dealer has been unable to make a successful repair. *jb

The right sliding door of the 2000 sienna has a big problem with the lock. Most of the time, the inside lock gets stuck from the inside and there is no way that the passenger can get out that door. And it takes time before it gets fixed -- more often than not i have to contend myself moving the car without the benefit of the right side door slid closed, but not locked. This is not safe, especially for a parent like…
