    The gas struts on the manual liftgate on my toyota sienna have failed and they are only recalling to power struts. But if they are the same struts used on the power and manual liftgate then they need to be included in the recall also. The liftgate itself is very heavy and has nearly smashed one of my children, it could have cut her in half

Toyota does not consider a door that opens on its own a safety issue, therefore they would not fix the problem without charge. I consider this dangerous because a door that continues to open on its own is…

    Driver's side passenger power door has failed. Sometimes it will open when the buttons are pressed- and then it will not close. I have to manually close the door. Was told warranty is no longer in effect at 39k miles. I feel this is a huge safety hazard. *tr

    2006 toyota sienna two potential safety failures: (1) the drivers side sliding door when opening will slide into the gas fuel door while another person is fueling the vehicle. There is no stop that prevents the door from striking the gas door when a person is exiting the vehicle. When this happened, the fueling nozzle was jarred loose and fuel was splashed on the vehicle. Also, the fuel message stayed on following…
