THE CABLE SNAPPED ON THE POWER SLIDING DOOR. THIS IS THE SECOND DOOR NOW. ONE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN AT ALL, AND THE OTHER DOOR WILL ONLY OPEN MANUALLY. TOYOTA HAS AN ENHANCED WARRANTY PROGRAM ON THE CABLES, OBVIOUSLY WITH THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A WARRANTY RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND THE WARRANTY IS FOR 9 YEARS /120 K MILES. OF COURSE, I AM OVER THE MILEAGE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AT APPROXIMATELY 2000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2014 TOYOTA SIENNA FAILED. IT WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION, AND THAT TRANSMISSION SUBSEQUENTLY FAILED AT 10,800 MILES. BOTH TIMES, IT CAME WITHOUT WARNING, AND THE SECOND TIME WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE EVER PRECEDED THESE FAILURES. TOYOTA AND THE DEALERSHIP CLAIM TO NOT HAVE ANY EXPLANATION FOR THIS FAILURE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, UP HILL OR DOWN AND INTO CORNERS ESPECIALLY THE TRACTION CONTROL OR STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM WOULD ENGAGE THE BRAKES AND CUT ENGINE POWER, ALARM BEEPING. HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER A ONE HOUR TRIP. STREERING WOULD PULL TO THE RIGHT. DRIVING CONDITIONS WERE SUCH THAT THE SYSTEM SHOULD NOT HAVE ENGAGED AT ALL. DRY, WARM, NEWER TIRES DRIVING RECOMMENDED SPEEDS FOR THE ROAD. ALL DRIVERS ON THE ROAD WERE AT RISK WITH THE SUDDEN BREAKING AND STEERING PULLING INTO ANOTHER LANE.

TIRES, TIRES:SIDEWALL, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
MICHELIN "HYDROEDGE" XSE TIRES. 90K MILE WARRANTY. AFTER 30K MILES THERE ARE DEEP DANGEROUS SEPERATIONS IN THE TREAD PATTERN ON THE SHOULDER AT EVERY SINGLE TREAD LOOP ON ALL 4 TIRES.. REPORTS SAY TIRES EXPLODE FORM LOSS OF INTERNAL INTEGRITY AND PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN ACCIDENTS CAUSED FROM THESE BLOWOUTS. . WEB SEARCH CONFIRMS THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS AND BLOWOUTS. TIRE SHOLD BE ON A SAFETY RECALL LIST BUT THEY ARE NOT. TIRES WERE SO DEFECTIVE THAT MICHELIN HAD TO STOP PRODUCTION. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR BLOWOUTS. WHEN WILL MICHELIN BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DIES FROM A BLOW OUT???? WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO FILL OUT THE REST OF THIS FORM, THE FORM WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO ENTER THE NAME FOR A TIRE LINE, "HYDROEDGE" XSE AND THE FACT THAT ALL FOUR (4) TIRES HAVE THE SAME DEFECT. ALSO TWO OF MY TIRES DO NOT HAVE ANY DATE STAMP IN THE DOT # AREA. HOW COULD THIS BE?????

POWER TRAIN, SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR, PN# 89245-08011 FAILED. THE VAN CAN NOT BE DRIVEN OVER 23 MPH. THE BRAKES COME ON AUTOMATICALLY OVER 23 MPH AND THE ENGINE WILL NOT RESPOND TO ACCELERATE. THE STEERING SEEMS STRANGE (ANTI-LOCK BRAKE LIGHT COMING ON) BUT I WAS ABLE TO KEEP THE VAN IN MY LANE OF TRAFFIC. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS SENSOR OR OTHERS WILL FAIL AND THE VAN WILL AUTOMATICALLY APPLY THE BREAKS AND LOOSE POWER PREVENTING ME FROM MANEUVERING THE VAN TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WAS TRAVELLING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
2005 SIENNA XLE LIMITED. THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM ACTIVATES RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY IN DRY CONDITIONS - MOST OFTEN ON DOWNHILL, ANGLED TURNS, AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 25 MPH AND 60 MPH. A SUDDEN DASH-BOARD ALARM SOUNDS WITH VEHICLE SKID LIGHT. SIMULTANEOUSLY, THERE IS A SUDDEN, INDEPENDENT ACTIVATION OF FRONT BRAKES, GRINDING NOISES, THE STEERING WHEEL SHUTTERS WILDLY, AND THE VEHICLE ATTEMPTS TO PULL TOWARDS ONCOMING LANES. IT REQUIRES GREAT EFFORT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. THE IMMEDIATE RESULT IS A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL! THIS DEFECT HAS OCCURRED 8 TIMES IN 3 MONTHS. SERIOUS FEARS ABOUT OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH MY FAMILY. A FRONT-END ALIGNMENT WAS DONE ON THE VEHICLE. PROBLEM PERSISTS. MULTIPLE REPORTS HAVE BEEN FILED THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY DEFECT AND THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE RECALLED TO PREVENT INJURY OR FATALITIES! THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD THAT CAN LEAD TO A SERIOUS HIGHWAY ACCIDENTS!

NOTICED THE LEFT SLIDING DOOR HAD 2 OF 3 BOLTS MISSING. WENT TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHEN SERVICE PERSONNEL SAID IT WAS A BODY SHOP ISSUE AND THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT. THEREFORE, NO RECORD OF THE INCIDENT IN THEIR SYSTEM EITHER. MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO REPLACE THE 2 MISSING BOLTS AND TIGHTEN THEM ALL, ALLOWING THE DOOR TO CLOSE WITHOUT CHALLENGES UNTIL JUST THE OTHER DAY, THE DOOR WAS UNABLE TO FULLY CLOSE. (JUNE 22, 2015). MY MECHANIC & I DISCOVERED THE DOOR TO BE IN WORSE SHAPE THAN EVER. THE PART WHICH LATCHES & KEEPS THE DOOR SECURELY CLOSED HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF & IN NEED OF WELDING TO BE REPAIRED. ALL 3 BOLTS HAD FALLEN OUT AND WERE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. THIS OBVIOUSLY IS VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRANSPORTING PRECIOUS CARGO LIKE CHILDREN.

ON THE TOYOTA SIENNA THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF REPORTS OF THE DOORS NOT OPENING OR NOT BEING ABLE TO OPEN THEM. ON MY SISTER'S CAR THE AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC DOOR AS WELL AS THE MANUAL DOOR HAVE BOTH STOPPED WORKING. WITH THESE DOORS BEING BROKEN AND UNABLE TO OPEN...ANYONE IN THE BACK OF THE CAR WOULD BE TRAPPED IN AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE. THESE DOORS NEED TO BE RECALLED.
