Tl* the contact owns a 2017 toyota sienna. while driving 35 mph, the contact heard a popping sound coming from the engine. simultaneously, all of the warning indicators illuminated and smoke appeared from the hood of the vehicle. the vehicle immediately shut off and was towed to an independent mechanic where the water pump was repaired; however, the failure was not corrected. the contact spoke with the toyota manufacturer who advised him to take the vehicle to a local toyota dealer. the vehicle was towed to hillside toyota (139-65 queens blvd, jamaica, ny 11435, (718) 521-4554) where it was diagnosed that there was massive engine failure. the contact agreed to have the vehicle repaired and the dealer kept it for nearly a month. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 67,000.
Issue started at about 4100 miles. the van would not start at all. the push button would act as of the van would start but nothing would happen. after trying 5 plus times it started. took the van to the dealer that stated everything looked good. now about two weeks ago the same issue occured. the van would display check charging system on the display and the van would not start no would the side doors open in order for me to get my infant's out of the van. after multiple attempts the van going again it started and i was on my way. contact toyota to inform them and so far they have not contacted me back as well as the dealer.
The van is burning oil. toyota did an oil consumption test and it is confirmed to be burning oil. they are not being helpful in helping me out....
Husband lost control of the car driving 75 miled per hour on highway. "awd brake override. contact dealership" came on a gauge. pulled off side of i-95 and car shook and came to a complete hault after making a loud grinding noise. we immediatley noticed fire coming from under the hood on driver side. evacuated, called 911. car was a total loss. please get toyota to investigate since this is not the first 2017 toyota sienna to catch on fire in the same manner.
I was driving on the interstate at approximately 65 miles per hour. my 'check all wheel drive system' warning alarm came on shortly followed by the: check engine, battery alarm, collision breaking system, etc. i'm certain there were more alerts going off; however i was trying to steer a car, that had lost power off the roadway. i was able to get the car safely onto the shoulder where i attempted to turn off the vehicle. i couldn't turn the car off until i realized i needed the car to be in park. after i turned the car off i noticed black smoke coming from the engine and could smell something burning. i opened the door & got my three year old son out of the car & noticed more black smoke. i quickly distanced myself from the vehicle & noticed fire coming from the engine. i called 911 but the car was engulfed in flames within minutes. the fire department responded within 5 minutes & were able to extinguish the fire. *js
