NHTSA Complaint #10351169 — 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA

TOYOTA SIENNA 2005 WAS TAKEN INTO DEALERSHIP FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE SERVICE WHICH INCLUDED A CHECK OF THE BRAKES. WAS TOLD REAR BRAKES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT WAS PERFORMED. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT FRONT BRAKES WERE FINE. 1 MONTH LATER HAVING PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES STILL. TOOK IT TO PRIVATE MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WOULD THINK THIS PROBLEMS WOULD HAVE BEEN DETECTED WHEN IT WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP. I AM LUCKY THAT MY BRAKES DID NOT FAIL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA INCLUDE HAVING TO REPLACE THE A/C COMPRESSOR TWICE, RACK AND PINION REPLACED, AND NOW THE REAR STRUTS ON THE TAILGATE HAVE FAILED. THIS VEHICLE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK. *TR
