2000 Toyota Sienna Structure

THE SLIDING DOOR OCCASIONALLY FAILED TO OPEN OR CLOSE. THE DOOR CONTINUED TO HAVE THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER THE DEALER HAD REPAIRED. DURING THE SECOND REPAIR, THE DEALER REPLACED THE MOTOR FOR THE DOOR. *YH

INTERMITTENTLY POWER SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY, DOOR ALARM WILL CHIME. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES, DID NOT FIND A PROBLEM. IN JULY OF 2002, DEALER REPLACED ACTUATOR AND POWER MODULE.*AK

WHILE DRIVING POWER OPERATED SLIDING DOOR COMES OPEN WITHOUT OPERATION. ALSO, LIGHT ON THE DASH OPERATES ERRACTICALLY, INDICATING DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING RIGHT SIDE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR WILL COME OPEN BY ITSELF. WHEN VEHICLE IS PUT INTO DRIVE DOOR WILL MAKE A NOISE LIKE IT'S NOT SHUT. DEALER CONTACTED.*AK *YH

POWER DOOR WILL NOT RESPOND WHENEVER DOOR IS IN MOTION/CLOSING. UNABLE TO REOPEN DOOR WHILE IN CLOSING MODE. DOOR WILL NOT RESPOND TO DOOR SWITCH UNTIL IT REACHES LOCKING POINT. CHILDS HAND WAS MASHED IN DOOR BEFORE GETTING DOOR TO REOPEN. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. *AK *SLC

INTERGRATED CUP HOLDERS DON'T HOLD CUPS PROPERLY, WHEN SHUTTING DOOR EVERYTHING SPILLS RIGHT DOWN INTO DOOR PANEL, AND WHEN THIS HAPPENS DOORS GET STUCK.*AK

THE POWER SLIDING DOOR DOES NOT STOP CLOSING UNLESS IT HIT AN OBJECT OR STANDING AT A SPECIFIC ANGLE. TOYOTA CUSTOMER SUPPORT IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THE FORCE AT WHICH DOOR CLOSES TO ENSURE SAFETY.*AK

THE DOORS ON MY 2000 SIENNA RATTLE SO LOUDLY THAT THE SOUND CAN BE HEARD OVER THE RADIO. IT SOUNDS AS IF THE DOORS ARE NOT COMPLETELY CLOSED. TOYOTA CONTENDS THE VAN IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED AND THE SOUND IS "BODY FLEX". THE NOISE IS VERY DISTRACTING TO A DRIVER AND COULD CONTRIBUTE TO CAUSING AN ACCIDENT..*AK

REAR BUMPER IS NOT ALIGNED CORRECTLY, ONE SIDE OF THE BUMPER IS AWAY FROM THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

THE POWER SLIDING DOOR ACTIVATED WHILE MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND I WERE REMOVING ITEMS FROM THE BACK SEAT. THE DOOR DID NOT STOP WITH PRESSURE AGAINST IT AND NO ELECTRIC EYE IS PRESENT. NO SAFETY FEATURES ARE AVAILABLE ON THIS DOOR TO STOP IT FROM CRUSHING SOMEONE. THE MANUAL HAS A WARNING SAYING THAT YOU SHOULD STAY OUT OF THE WAY BECAUSE SERIOUS INJURY COULD RESULT. I FIND IT AMAZING THAT TOYOTA WOULD RELY UPON A WARNING IN A MANUAL TO PREVENT INJURY OR DEATH RATHER THAN A SAFETY DE4VICE AS IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE FROM OTHER MANUFACTURER'S. LUCKILY I WAS NEARBY AND PUSHED MY DAUGHTER TO SAFETY IN TIME. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, ONCE I DISABLED THE POWER DOOR VIA A BUTTON NEAR THE STEERING COLUMN, THE DOOR BECAME SO DIFFICULT TO MOVE THAT I HAVE TO STRAIN TO USE IT. I AM VERY UPSET WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT I HAVE HAD FOR ONLY 3 WEEKS AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE A NATIONAL RECALL. THANK YOU.
