“My son was getting into the van via the driver side sliding door. His backpack bumped the sensor, and the door opened and froze halfway open. I disengaged the automatic opening, but the door had difficulty closing. I noticed that the cable to the sliding door had snapped. I was eventually able to close the door, but now the door will not open at all.”
NHTSA complaint #11386865, filed 2021-01, 95,000 miles“On 12/20/19 in my 2014 Toyota Sienna the sliding door next to my 3 year old opened while I was driving. I was in the midst of accelerating after a light turned green when the car started notifying me that a door was ajar and the passenger-side sliding door started opening. The door opened fully and remained open as I was at speed in the middle of an intersection. Note that all doors were closed and latched before I put the vehicle in drive, and this only occurred after a few miles of driving. I took the car to the dealership and they replaced the latch assembly in both sliding doors. …”
NHTSA complaint #11316311, filed 2020-03, 86,000 miles“This complaint is in reference to NHTSA campaign id 08v244000. The power rear liftgate struts on my 2004 Toyota Sienna will no longer support the gate, and it has closed on someone standing underneath it several times. I went to a Toyota dealer to repair the problem, and the dealer quoted a very high repair price (approximately $500), and did not mention that there was a service campaign for this issue. I contacted Toyota on march 19, 2015 using the toll free number listed in the service campaign listed on the NHTSA campaign id number. …”
NHTSA complaint #10700585, filed 2015-03, 119,000 miles“There is a possibility that under certain limited conditions, if the sliding door opening operation is impeded, the sliding door motor circuit could be overloaded, opening the fuse for the motor. If this occurs when the door latch is in an unlatched position, the door could open while driving, increasing the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant.”
NHTSA complaint #10970955, filed 2017-04, 40,000 miles“Vehicle is a handicap vehicle equipped with electric ramp. Problems with sliding doors unlocking, not locking or doors opening making it an extreme safety based. Interim recall received recommendation received in november to operate doors in manual mode is unacceptable with ramp and handicapped drivers. Contacted Toyota corporate and would not provide assistance or accommodation.”
