Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED. WHEN WE BACKED OUT I TURNED THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT. THERE WAS A "CLUNK" AND IT FELT LIKE I JUST WENT OVER SOME OBJECT WITH THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. WE COULD FIND NOTHING IN THE PARKING LOT THAT WOULD CONTRIBUTE TO THIS. I DROVE THE CAR THAT DAY WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THE NEXT DAY WE WENT ON A 430 MILE TRIP. SEVERAL TIMES THAT WE PARKED WE HEARD THE SAME "CLUNK" AND FELT A SLIGHT DROP IN THE RIGHT FRONT. I WENT TO THE TOYOTA DEALER AS SOON AS I COULD GET AN APPOINTMENT ON 2/26/13. TOYOTA FOUND THAT THE INTERNAL POWER STEERING RACK WAS FAILING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR SAFETY. THE PART NUMBER WAS: 0 44250-08041. I ASKED TOYOTA IF THERE WERE ANY SAFETY RECALLS. THERE WERE NONE. TOYOTA SAID THESE FAILURES DID OCCUR ON TRUCKS IN HEAVY DUTY USE BUT NOT IN SIENNA MINI-VANS. *TR
