    The van started fine this morning. Drove the kids to school. The van started again just fine. Made a stop on the way back home, and the van would not start. Passerby gave a jump and it started after about 10 minutes of charging. The battery had completely drained...even the radio wasn't working.

    Fuel filler door upper hinge is broken. This prevents the electrically operated sliding side door from opening thus causing entrapment for passengers in the rear seating areas. The sliding door sometime will not open when parked or standing because of the broken fuel filler door upper hinge

    The power sliding side doors pop open on their own. This happens when the vehicle is stationary and when driving. No injuries to report. We have taken the vehicle to our local toyota dealer who put the doors on manual but now the door are very hard to open and close and my children cannot do it. This started in nov 2016 and the issue remains. I feel that the remedy is taking an unreasonably long time and would like…

To avoid hitting her i had to break firm but not slamming on the breaks. I stopped about a car length short of her and then felt an impact. I assumed i had been…

    Brakes locked up while trying to leave a parking lot. Many warning lights came on including vsc, abs, and traction control and the computer said needs immediate service. The toyota service manager said they've never seen this and that the actuator needs replaced. I've noted that there are 2 other instances of this issue and hope that this safety issue will be investigated. The nhtsa campaign number: 14v054000 that…

Even though the door is sealed shut, it is extremely annoying because of the of noise and visual alert that states that the door is supposedly not shut. *tr
