    The automatic sliding door cable broke, and we are now unable to open the door. Our children can only exit the car from the driver side door. We understand that toyota is repairing certain model years with this safety issue, under an extended warranty. If the part is defective, why are some owners covered and others paying $2000 for repairs?

    Our 2010 toyota sienna recently had a cel go on. No codes were found by local repair shop so took the car to toyota dealer.

Also read that toyota has already covered a extension warranty for the camry hybrid with the same problem part. One…

    Both power doors broke the same way. The cable frayed and was pulled into the door by the motor. The doors would not open at all until serviced, which caused a safety concern! The fix was estimated at $1,500 per door.

    The rear passenger sliding door is automatic. The door motor started making a loud noise when attempting to open the door automatically. Suddenly, the cable wire that is inside the vehicle into the door to operate the automatic mechanism snapped and is sticking out of the area below the last rear window of the vehicle and now the door will not open, even upon attempting to open it manually. *tr

    My 17 month old's head got jammed between the right rear wheel and the right rear door panel while the electric door slid open. Even though my wife pulled on the door handle the door kept sliding open. My baby's head was crushed between the tire and door panel. This is a very unsafe design as my wife tried to stop the door from sliding back and the door kept moving. I need someone to call me to further discuss this…

    We have a 2010 toyota sienna xle. The problem is with the automatic doors and key fob and back hatch door. The key will unlock and immediately relock all the doors. If you touch the buttons to activate sliding doors they work off and on. The big problem though is the back door - the trunk. It opens and then as you are going into the trunk you don't know it is closing on you. This has now happened at least 12 times.…
