    I pulled into a parking spot and put the van in park (with my foot still on the brake). I took my foot off the brake and it continued to roll forward. I quickly put my foot back on the brake and it stopped moving. I then shifted back to drive and then back to park. I lifted my foot off the brake and the van continued to roll forward (even though it was in park). I put my foot back on the brake to stop it from…

    This is a customers car. I work in an alignment shop. The customer dropped this car off this morning for an alignment. I drove the car into the shop, on the alignment rack this morning. When i got out of the car, and walked around to the front of the car, i noticed the hood was open. I did not remember popping the hood, but i figured i just forgot, and proceeded to shut the hood, as i didn't need it open to align…

    Dashboard started becoming soft a few months ago, where if you accidently scraped it with your fingernail a little chunk would come out, and then it started cracking and every time we get in there, there is another crack. Worried about air bag coming out. I'm just now reading that a letter was sent out from toyota about this to owners, but we never got one. We have gotten one for a couple of other things, but not…

    When the liftgate is open electronically, it falls about 10 inches after it reaches the fully open position at which point the power motor will engage and power the liftgate to the fully closed position. The liftgate safety operation does not go back into open position with children underneath the liftgate until after injury. There needs to be recall before major injury happens to a child. These children are getting…

    I've noticed a crack that has appeared on the dashboard (near glove compartment) at the passenger side going towards the radio player. There's another crack on the dashboard near the vent on the driver's side. I've done my research regarding this and found that it is a known issue for 2005 toyota sienna. I've contacted a representative of toyota dealership in tysons, va for them to take a look. I also wanted to file…

    The lift gate struts, which have already been replaced via a recall have failed. The lift gate will not stay open with the lift gate motor on or off. It slams shut and is very dangerous. When trying load in groceries today, the lift gate tried to close on me. Lucky children where not the ones that were underneath.

    Passenger side automatic sliding door stopped working 5 years ago so we used it manually. Door stopped working manually 2 years ago. Driver side sliding door was not automatic. One year ago began not working intermittently. Now you cannot open the door from the inside. This posses a great safety hazard. Passengers in the rear two rows of the van cannot open either door in an emergency.

    Takata recall we purchased our vehicle about a year ago and do love our sienna. The vehicle will down shift and the traction control kicks in while we are in a curve. It is so bad that it almost comes to a stop and skids around the curve. It doesn't matter if you are going 30 or 45. It happens several times while driving on a daily basis. We have took our vehicle to a mechanic and they have hooked it to their…

    Power sliding door stuck open. Wouldn't budge - we live in the upper peninsulla of michigan and this happened during the middle of winter as we were getting our children to school. Temps were in the single digits with wind chills -10 to -20 degrees. Had to physically force the door shut to close it. It's still in the same state i left in. Doesn't open. It's just barely closed/latched so the beeper doesn't go off…

    On the toyota sienna there are hundreds of reports of the doors not opening or not being able to open them. On my sister's car the automatic electric door as well as the manual door have both stopped working. With these doors being broken and unable to open...anyone in the back of the car would be trapped in an accident or fire. These doors need to be recalled.
