Example complaints

“The wiring harness connector for both lights has had water accumulate in the connector which causes the rear tail lights to fail. Both of my tail lights have failed, and the cause was corrosion inside the wiring harness connector. I had to replace the wiring harness and connectors on both sides, driver, and passenger And I had to pay out-of-pocket. The dealer said that this problem is common on 22 sienna's and I have seen other 22 sienna's with out their driver and passenger rear running lights burnt out.”

“Our 2022 Toyota Sienna would not start after arriving at a doctor’s appointment. Contacted active ToyotaCare for towing - no one showed up. Called a friend to jump start van; consulted the owners’ manual and performed jump. Van started but could only be driven about 100 yds in parking lot. Van stopped; multiple error codes showed up when trying to jump start again. ToyotaCare didn’t call again or show up so we ended up paying for tow service to the dealership - Haley Toyota of Richmond. …”

“The complaint was the failure mode of a no start condition while traveling. The issue was related to partial or improper function of the DSM which caused a drain on the battery and battery cell damage requiring full replacement. The fix was a software update to prevent recurrence which cost several hundred dollars (according to the Toyota Service Bulletin or TSB-0089) along with approx $200 for diagnostic analysis. The TSB work would have been covered if we had not exceeded 36,000 miles. We had the vehicle for 3 years and 1 month. …”

“Pre-Collision System Malfunction, Hybrid System Malfunction, AWD System Malfunction suddenly when restarting the vehicle. Towed to Toyota of Downtown LA dealership. Toyota of Downtown LA Service tells me that the CPU on my relative new Sienna 2022 was fried from jump start when Sienna starting-battery was low. It was done by a AAA professional, I doubt that is the reason for the fried CPU. I believe Toyota engineers would not design/allow the CPU vulnerable to being fried from a jump start. This is a horrific design flaw if it is this way. …”

“Ever since a tire was changed on the vehicle, it has had a recurring error message that states there is a malfunction in the tire pressure monitor system. As such, I rarely know the status of my tire pressure as the system has the malfunction at least 50% of the time. The car has been in service 2x for this issue and they have had it for close to 30 days and driven it all over saying they needed to drive it to make the error go away. They have replaced the sensors on the tire, nothing has worked and the problem still occurs daily.”
