“The side automatic door cable snapped. If my child was in his seat he would have been injured bad. The tension on this was tremendous. All my wife did was open the door. We have a 2009 Sienna awd and have maintained it per Toyota instructions. Toyota wants $1100 plus $300 do diagnose the problem. This is just wrong. Please help. The cable was hanging where my son would be sitting.”
NHTSA complaint #10622644, filed 2014-08, 80,000 miles“I wish to report two separate gas pedal incidents involving my 2009 Toyota Sienna xle van that occurred on the same day. On this day, I made a trip from my residence to a local golf course and about 3 hours later I returned to my residence. On my way to the golf course, I was traveling in a housing area at about 20 MPH when I took my foot off of the gas pedal to slow down but the car continued at the same or slightly faster speed of about 25 MPH. The car should have easily slowed down because at this time I was going up a slight incline in the road. …”
NHTSA complaint #10318075, filed 2010-03, 19,537 miles“I've seen that Toyota is recalling many vehicles because of loose driver's side floormats, but not the Sienna minivan. After I heard about the problem I noticed that both clips holding the driver's floor mat back had come loose and the mat had slid several inches toward the front of the vehicle. I think I just never thought much about it until I saw this recall and what happened to that poor family. I had to snap the plastic retention clips back into the grommet holes, but I wonder if this is happening on other cars as well, and if so, why wasn't Sienna involved in the recall?”
