2011 AMERIVAN TOYOTA SIENNA Structurebody Problems

VAN SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. DOOR CABLE SYSTEM BROKE CAUSING DOOR TO BECOME INOPERABLE ELECTRONICALLY OR MANUALLY CREATING A HAZARD IN AN EMERGENCY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE FOR PASSENGERS. TOYOTA ACKNOWLEDGED THIS ISSUE FOR VANS FROM 2007-2010 WITH EXTENDED WARRANTIES TO REPAIR BUT IT KEEPS OCCURRING AND OTHER NEWER MODELS ARE NOT COVERED.

I WAS CHANGING THE FILTER AND FORGOT TO REMOVE THE ROD SUPPORTING THE HOOD. WHEN I CLOSED THE HOOD, THE HOOD WAS BENT LIKE AN ALUMINUM FOIL. IS SUPPOSED TO BE THAT WEAK? VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE QUALITY OF THE PART (WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE METAL). IF IT IS THAT EASY TO BEND THE HOOD, I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO ME IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THIS MODEL HAS TO BE RECALLED. *JS

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THE CAR BATTERY HAS FAILED TO START VEHICLE. AT SPORADIC AND UNPREDICTABLE INTERVALS DOES THIS OCCUR. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL TOYOTA BATTERY SOLD WITH THE VEHICLE. THE BATTERY SEEMS TO BE DRAINED RAPIDLY BY THE VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT RUNNING OR THE BATTERY IS NOT BEING ADEQUATELY RECHARGED BY THE ALTERNATOR. THE ORIGINAL TIRES SOLD WITH THE TOYOTA SIENNA WERE GOODYEAR EAGLE RSA. CURRENTLY ON SECOND SET AND THEY SEEM TO WEAR OUT QUICKLY. BOTH SIDE POWER DOORS SOMETIMES MAKES A POP SOUND WHEN OPENING WITH THE OUTSIDE HANDLES. *TR
