NHTSA Complaint #11219573 — 2012 TOYOTA SIENNA

POWER SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN OR CLOSE, WHEN PARKED. BEGAN TO MAKE CLICKING NOISES WHEN TRYING TO OPEN OR CLOSE DOOR. THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN COMPLETELY AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH PROPERLY. CABLE BECAME FRAYED AND BROKE AND WAS DANGLING FROM DOOR. WHEN WE WENT TO HAVE IT FIXED, THE QUOTED US $1200 TO FIX IT, SO WE OPTED TO CUT IT AND USE IT MANUALLY. WHEN USED MANUALLY, THE DOOR IS OFTEN UNSAFE BECAUSE IT SLIDES RAPIDLY AND ONCE CLOSED ON OUR DAUGHTER'S HAND.
