My van was in a parking lot. It was a clear humid 95 degree day. Hadn't rained in days. The van hadn't been washed recently. I opened the rear liftgate manually, got in the van but it wouldn't close with the interior button in several attempts. It took 4 attempts to close it manually. This is the second time this happened. I didn't make note of the number of beeps emitted. The first time it happened, i didn't take…

Takata recall i have a toyota sienna 2004. Last year, the sliding door cable was broken and it was just past the warranty. I had to pay $1,200 to have it fixed as the door could be open. And then after a few month, the door can't open automatically and the dealer said a motor failure which would cost another $1,000. I heard a lot of complaints about toyota sienna sliding door and unfortunate i am one of the victims.…

One day i couldn't roll down my window all of the way when…

The front door check has come loose and "pops" when opening/closing. This results in the door swinging shut without warning and could easily cause physical harm to an adult and severe harm to a smaller child. Toyota issued a severely limited "technical service bulletin" that only extended coverage for this defect to 5 years/100,000 (whichever came first). However, the average person does not drive 20,000 miles per…
