BOTH POWER DOORS BROKE THE SAME WAY. THE CABLE FRAYED AND WAS PULLED INTO THE DOOR BY THE MOTOR. THE DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN AT ALL UNTIL SERVICED, WHICH CAUSED A SAFETY CONCERN! THE FIX WAS ESTIMATED AT $1,500 PER DOOR.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ON VARIOUS DATES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS THE TRACTION CONTROL ALARM ON OUR CAR HAS FALSELY GONE OFF, BRAKES ENGAGED, AND WE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. WE WERE TRAVELING ON MINOR BENDS ON THE INTERSTATE AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 40 AND 60 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THIS HAPPENED. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, THIS APPEARS TO BE A HUGE AND COMMON PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE TAKING SERIOUSLY. I'VE NEVER FILED A COMPLAINT BEFORE, BUT THIS IS SO DANGEROUS AND SO RAMPANT THAT I BELIEVE IT ISN'T A MATTER OF IF PEOPLE WILL DIE, BUT WHEN. I FEAR FOR THE LIVES OF MY WIFE AND FOUR CHILDREN.

WHEELS
2010 SIENNA SPARE TIRE RECALL: MY SPARE TIRE COMPLETELY FELL OFF MY CAR WHEN I WAS DRIVING - NOT SURE IF IT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH BEHIND MY CAR. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY APPLIED THE RECALL FOR THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER, BUT THEY GAVE ME MY VEHICLE BACK WITHOUT A SPARE TIRE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 2 WEEKS WITH 4 KIDS IN MY CAR WITHOUT A SPARE TIRE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, MADE WORSE BY INCOMPETENT DEALER PERSONNEL. I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO BUY A NEW SPARE TIRE. AFTER ESCALATING THE ISSUE THROUGH THE TOYOTA CALL CENTER, THEY ARE NOW OFFERING ME A USED SPARE TIRE AS A REPLACEMENT. REPLACEMENT SPARE TIRE SHOULD NOT BE CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY DUE TO CARRIER FAILURE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COULD HAVE CAUSED DEATH BEHIND MY CAR. RECOMMEND THAT NHTSA FORCE TOYOTA TO MAKE SPARE TIRE REPLACEMENT PART OF OFFICIAL RECALL OR EDUCATE DEALERS ON HOW TO AUTHORIZE IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WE WERE DRIVING WHEN BACK CORNER WINDOW DETACHED FROM VEHICLE. NO ONE INJURED OR KILLED, BUT THAT EASILY COULD HAVE HAPPENED IF PEOPLE WERE IN VICINITY. SAME SITUATION HAPPENED WITH OTHER BACK SIDE WINDOW A FEW YEARS EARLIER ON FREEWAY, NEARLY STRIKING VEHICLE BEHIND US. TOYOTA WAS CONTACTED BUT REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE FAULTY DESIGN AS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. I CHECKED INTERNET TO LEARN OTHER SIENNA VAN OWNERS EXPERIENCED SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE DOCUMENT AS IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO NEGLECT BY TOYOTA.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY
MY 11-YEAR OLD SON GOT OUT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR STAITIONARY MINIVAN (IN PARK BUT RUNNING), FOR ME TO DROP HIM OFF FOR A CELLO LESSON. HE OPENED THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR TO GET HIS CELLO OUT. IT WASNT OPENING EASILY, SO I ALMOST SIMULTANEOUSLY PUSHED THE BUTTON ABOVE ME ON THE CONSOLE. AT THAT POINT THE DOOR STARTED TO CLOSE ON HIM. IT DID NOT STOP CLOSING AND WAS PRESSING HIM INTO THE DOOR FRAME. I DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING, AND HE WAS TOO SHOCKED TO SCREAM. HE WAS TRYING TO STOP IT FROM CLOSING ON HIM, BUT IT KEPT CLOSING. I EXPECTED THAT THE DOOR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY SENSE A BLOCKAGE, STOP AND OPEN BACK. HE WAS ONLY OK BECAUSE HE WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO PRESS BACK, BUT HIS HIP WAS VERY BRUISED. I FINALLY REALIZED THAT THE DOOR WASN'T OPENING, AND PRESSED THE BUTTON AGAIN ABOVE ME AND THE DOOR STOPPED. IT STRIPPED THE WIRES IN THE DOOR, AND THE AUTOMATIC DOOR IS NOW BROKEN. THE ELECTRICAL OR SENSING SYSTEM IN THIS DOOR IS FAULTY.
