IT RAINED AND FROZE, SNOWED AND THAWED, AND THE LATCH ON THE SLIDING DOOR OF MY 2012 TOYOTA SIENNA BROKE. THE DOOR WOULD SLIDE OPEN AND CLOSED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND WOULD NOT STAY CLOSED. FORTUNATELY NONE OF MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE BACK SEAT WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY PASSENGER SIDE POWER SLIDING DOOR MECHANISM IS BROKEN ON OUR 2008 SIENNA WITH 68,000 MILES. THE MECHANISM USES AND ELECTRIC MOTOR AND CABLE ASSEMBLY TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. THE CABLE HAS BROKEN SO POWER FUNCTIONS ARE GONE AND MANUAL FUNCTION IS HINDERED FROM BROKEN CABLE INTERFERING. TOYOTA HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR 2004-07 SIENNA'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME PART AND PART NUMBER? A INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND CAN AFFECT THE PROPER LATCHING OF THE SLIDING DOOR.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES, A JERKING CAN BE FELT, AND SHORTLY THE CHECK ENGINE, VSC, AND TRAK LIGHTS COME ON. CONTINUED DRIVING SOMETIMES RESULTS IN JERKING AND/OR LOSS OF ACCELERATION, INCLUDING LOSS OF VEHICLE MOVEMENT CONTROL. THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION TYPICALLY OCCURS DURING A TURN OR IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC. THE SITUATION HAS OCCURRED TO A LESSER DEGREE IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC WHEN PASSING OTHER VEHICLES. ANY OF THESE SITUATIONS IS OF CONCERN, BUT ESPECIALLY THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL FOR OTHER VEHICLES TO CRASH IN TO US. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON VARIOUS DATES OVER THE LAST APPROXIMATELY SIX (6) MONTHS. HAVE HAD COMMUNICATION WITH OUR LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, TOYOTA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND A NON-TOYOTA AUTO REPAIR SHOP; ALL TO NO AVAIL. NONE OF THEM HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM AND HOW TO FIX IT FOR SURE.

NOTICED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS A BINDING IN CLOSING ELECTRIC SIDE DOORS. A FEW WEEKS AGO, I COULD NOT CLOSE THE SLIDING DOOR. NOTICED A BROKEN CABLE. THE CABLE WAS FRAYED. IT IS ALSO FRAYED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAR. I WENT TO THE TOYOTA DEALER TO GET IT REPAIRED FREE. MY ODOMETER HAD 124,000 MILES. THE TOYOTA EXTENDED TECHNICAL WARRANTY ENDED AT 120,000. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. THE OTHER NIGHT I DROVE HOME IN 28 DEGREE WEATHER WITH THE SLIDING DOOR OPEN, BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT CLOSE. WE HAD TO BREAK THE CABLE TO GET THE DOOR CLOSED WHEN WE FINALLT GOT HOME. CHILDREN CAN FALL OUT OF OPEN SIDE DOORS ON TOYOTA VANS!! THIS IS A SERIOUS MANUFACTURING PROBLEM, AND TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE CABLES AT ANY DATE THAT THEY BREAK SO CHILDREN CAN GET IN OR OUT OF THE CAR SAFELY, AND OWNERS DO NOT HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THEIR DOORS OPEN. IT ALSO RUNS DOWN THE BATTERY!! A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. MY GRANDCHILDREN CAN FALL OUT OF MY CAR!!!! PLEASE MAKE THEM REPAIR MY OUR VANS FOR FREE. $1200-1600 FIX PER DOOR, OTHERWISE. SAFETY ISSUE!!!!!!!!!! RIDICULOUS I HAVE TO EVEN ASK FOR YOUR HELP. TOYOTA NEEDS TO COVER THEIR CARS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WHEN DRIVING ON A BACK ROAD UNDER DRY CONDITIONS, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AS WELL AS AN AUDITORY WARNING. THE BRAKES ARE ALSO APPLIED. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW. MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO RESOLVE IT. THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS IF VEHICLES ARE FOLLOWING BEHIND AS THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED FORCEFULLY. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS BETWEEN 30-40 MPH ON BACK ROADS, ONLY ON CURVES. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE IS GOING AN APPROPRIATE SPEED FOR THE CORNER, AND THERE IS NO REASON FOR THIS SYSTEM TO ENGAGE. THE VSC WARNING LIGHT HAD BEEN ON, BUT HAD TURNED OFF AS IF THE PROBLEM HAD FIXED ITSELF. THE VSC LIGHT TURNED ON ON DECEMBER 24TH 2015 AND TURNED OFF ON DECEMBER 26TH, 2015.

STRUCTURE:BODY
THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR OPENS ONLY 30-40% AND THEN GETS STUCK. THIS IS DUE TO WHAT APPEARS TO BE A DOOR CABLE FAULT (MOTOR STILL WORKS). A BIG EFFORT FROM AN ADULT CAN OPEN AND CLOSE, BUT NOT POSSIBLE FROM ANY OF OUR SIX CHILDREN RIDING IN THE BACK. THE DRIVER SLIDING DOOR IS BLOCKED BY A REAR FACING BABY SEAT, SO THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. THIS ISSUE STARTED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE DAY. THERE WERE NO ISSUES PRIOR TO THIS. *JS
