The plastic on the dashboard is cracking as if it was slashed with a razor knife. I looked up the problem on the internet and numerous sites have people reporting the problem going back to 2004 models. The toyota dealer service department just says the van is out of warranty and the cracks are due to age (which they probably are to some degree) but present no safety issues. I refute that claim. If the dash is…

The dashboard on my vehicle is melting. Even though it is a 2006 model my vehicle only has 59,000 miles. When i reported it to the dealership where i purchased the vehicle they told me that it was because i used the wrong cleaner and i had damaged it. The estimated cost to replace the dashboard cover was $1,000.00. Our local tv station ran a report that the toyota's and lexus vehicles all have this same problem. *tr

Power sliding door on passenger side does not always latch. It appears that the motor is too weak to make the door latch fully. This does not happen all the time, and it seems to be random. Have noticed that the door seems to move more slowly when it has the latching problem. *tr

Dash board has multiple cracks due to defective material. I am concerned that this might affect how the airbags deploy in an accident as the cracks are also over the passenger airbag area. I have seen many toyota siennas with the same problem. *tr
