Consumer Description

THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS CAUSING A WHIRLING SOUND. THE SOUND ONLY OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON DRIVE. I DON'T HEAR THE SAME HIGH PITCHED WHIRLING SOUND WHEN THE CAR IS IN REVERSE. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS GENERATION OF SIENNA. TOYOTA HAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE RAV 4 BUT NOT THE SIENNA.
