POWER SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN OR CLOSE, WHEN PARKED. BEGAN TO MAKE CLICKING NOISES WHEN TRYING TO OPEN OR CLOSE DOOR. THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN COMPLETELY AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH PROPERLY. CABLE BECAME FRAYED AND BROKE AND WAS DANGLING FROM DOOR. WHEN WE WENT TO HAVE IT FIXED, THE QUOTED US $1200 TO FIX IT, SO WE OPTED TO CUT IT AND USE IT MANUALLY. WHEN USED MANUALLY, THE DOOR IS OFTEN UNSAFE BECAUSE IT SLIDES RAPIDLY AND ONCE CLOSED ON OUR DAUGHTER'S HAND.

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN COMING TO A STOP GOING ABOUT 5 MPH TOWARDS A STOP SIGN, MY VAN ACCELERATED INTO TRAFFIC. BECAUSE THE VAN JOLTED ME INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, IT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER WHETHER I AM BRAKING OR COASTING, THE VAN WILL ACCELERATE UNCONTROLLABLY.I HAVE TWO CHILDREN AND NOT ONLY AM I PUTTING THEIR LIVES AT RISK, BUT MINE ALSO. I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE DUE TO HOW DANGEROUS IT IS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WAS DRIVING HOME FROM RUNNING ERRANDS, ABOUT A 4 MILE DRIVE AT 35 MILES/HR. AT A STOP LIGHT THERE SEEMED TO BE SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL SURGE. ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHED AND THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ON AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, SO I ASSUMED IT WAS A FLUKE AND CONTINUED ON MY WAY HOME. A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD AT ANOTHER STOP LIGHT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND STARTED TO UNLOAD MY CAR WHEN I NOTICED SMOKE EMANATING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I OPENED THE HOOD TO DISCOVER A SMALL FIRE COMING FROM A LARGE GROUP OF WRAPPED WIRES BEHIND THE BATTERY. I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT OUT QUICKLY WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER, BUT THE CAR IS COMPLETELY DEAD AND THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL HARNESS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS SOME OTHER NEARBY PARTS. THIS VEHICLE WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. THERE IS JUST UNDER 65,000 MILES ON IT AND I BROUGHT IT IN FOR IT'S 60K MAINTENANCE 6 MONTHS AGO (6/11/18). AT THAT TIME THEY ALSO TOOK CARE OF THE RECALLS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND THE POWER SLIDING DOORS. SINCE I WAS ABLE TO CONTAIN THE FIRE QUICKLY, THIS VEHICLE SUFFERED MINIMAL ENGINE DAMAGE, SO I'M WONDERING IF IT SHOULD BE USED FOR INVESTIGATION PURPOSES BEFORE REPAIRS ARE MADE AS IT APPEARS THIS MAY HAVE HAPPENED WITH OTHER TOYOTA SIENNAS THAT SUFFERED MUCH GREATER DAMAGE.

WHEELS
THE TIRES WEAR OUT TOO QUICKLY. TWO YEARS AGO I BOUGHT 70000 MILE TIRES AND AFTER LESS THE 30000 MILES ALL FOUR TIRES WERE WORN DOWN ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE. THE ALIGNMENT WAS CHECKED AT THE DEALER EVERY 10000 MILES AND THE TIRES WERE ROTATED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE TIRES GET EXCESSIVELY WORN BEFORE THEY ARE EXPECTED TO. THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING. I NOTICED THE EXCESSIVE WEAR AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THAT THIS CAR JUST EATS UP TIRES.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
"TAKADA RECALL" I AM WRITING BECAUSE MY TAKADA AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN UNDER RECALL FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. EVERY SINGLE ATTEMPT (MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS) HAVE GONE UNRETURNED, DESPITE THE FACT THAT I HAVE CALLED 888-546-1750 ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS! BECAUSE THIS RECALL AS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE EITHER INJURY OR DEATH, I WOULD THINK IT WOULD BE IN TAKADA, TOYOTA AND MY BEST INTEREST TO GET BACK TO ME. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE RECALL AND VERY DISSATISFIED WITH HOW THE TOYOTA RECALL TEAM HAS NOT CONTACTED ME. THERE IS A SECOND RECALL ON THE DOORS FOR THE TOYOTA SIENNA. BECAUSE I CANNOT GET A HOLD OF THE RECALL TEAM, I CAN ALSO NOT SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THIS RECALL ADDRESSED IN MY VEHICLE. THIS IS UNEXCUSABLE!
