NHTSA Complaint #10667058 — 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA

THE SLIDING POWER DOOR, PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT OPEN AND IS STUCK CLOSED. TOYOTA IS CHARGING OVER $1500 FOR THE FIX, EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR YEARS. ANY ON-LINE SEARCH WILL CLEARLY INDICATE A NEED FOR A RECALL ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE: "TO DATE, TOYOTA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE SIENNA, ALTHOUGH SOME OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THE AUTOMAKER HAS ISSUED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS (TSB) FOR THE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS. A TSB IS EFFECTIVELY A HIDDEN RECALL, MEANING THAT TOYOTA IS ATTEMPTING TO HANDLE THE PROBLEM IN-HOUSE. CONTACT YOUR TOYOTA DEALER FOR ASSISTANCE. CHECK THE NHTSA WEBSITE FOR CURRENT RECALL INFORMATION" I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA, MANY TIMES AND THEY JUST DON?T CARE. SO CAN THE NHTSA DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE OR NOT???? THANK YOU. *TR
