“I purchased this Toyota brand new in late 2007 and it was delivered in early 2008. It was modified by braunability to be wheelchair accessible. This means the original floor was cut out and a new sub-floor was welded in its place to accommodate the wheelchair. I noticed a lot of premature rust on the exterior modified sub-floor in 2016 I contacted braunability with my concerns only to be dismissed by them because they claimed the van was out of warranty. …”

“I was parallel parking, backing into a parking space on a long bridge in a downtown/busy area. When I tapped the accelerator lightly to back up, my van suddenly lurched back (in reverse), accelerating so quickly I felt like I was in a rocket ship being lifted into the air. My wheel was turned in preparation for backing into the space. At a breakneck speed, my van accelerated in reverse, lurching up a large concrete step (all 4 tires), squealing erratically. …”

“The rear sliding door latches fail. The door will not stay closed due to latch/locking mechanism failure. I had a dog in the back seat when door latch failed...luckily the dog did not fall out. If a person had an unsecured child in a rear seat they could very easily fall out! This has happened numerous times but the dealer told me the lock was not lubricated which was an outright lie because Toyota has a service bulletin on it since october 2010. …”

“My Toyota Sienna 2007 limited it fail its hatch door closes its own and it hit my head I'm afraid that by accident my kids might do the same, when they open the hatch door. I read about 2004-2006 recall and had Toyota technical service bulletin march 14,2007 model 04-07 this regards the lift gate not properly working. On the 04-06 recall why not the 07 recall not included. While I got the same problem and the same parts that causes the problem.”

“I own a 2007 Toyota Sienna mini-van. The liftgate is opened by depressing a rubber covered button. The rubber has melted to a point that it is molten. Each time you touch the latch your fingers are turned black and it is extremely difficult to remove. I live in texas and we are experiencing very high temperatures. I have read many online accounts of other people having this problem and I think Toyota should recall the affected vehicles. …”
