Sienna

  • miles
I have a 2015 Toyota Sienna LE that I purchased new from the dealer. The original Michelin tires had excessive wear after less than 2yrs and ~28K miles. I replaced these with Continental tires(rated for 70K miles) and after 2years and at ~63K on the vehicle miles I had to replace those with General Altimax (rated for 75K miles). Each time tires were replaced it received and alignment. I now need to replace the third set of tires at ~88k for set number four. Additionally I had to replace the Rank and Pinion (Complete unit), both tie rods and both suspension control arms and ball joint assembly and a wheel alignment. Can is adult driven mostly in town but has one long road trip on it (6K miles). This will be the fourth set of tires on a vehicle with less than 100K miles along with 5-6 alignments. All tires have been maintained and rotated. This has to be a vehicle defect as I have multiple tire manufactures, all rated for more than double the tire life I'm getting. I have $2000 in tires so far (not counting the originals) $1250 in replacing the front end components noted and now have to spend another $1k on tires.

Purchased my Sienna in February, 2019 with 41K miles. Days after purchase, I brought a noise to the dealerships attention and was told it was road noise. Fast forward to June, 2019 and the noise is worse. My driver's side strut is blown at 44K miles. Finding a replacement has been a hassle. This part is obviously a manufacturer defect and should be covered by Toyota for replacement. Currently waiting and hoping the backordered struts ship to me so I can get it replaced. Also, dealership recommended replacing one strut. Common sense dictates that you always replace struts in pairs, otherwise you will drive a lopsided vehicle and cause more trouble down the road.

Wheelchair van conversion gone wrong. I have it documented. The state of Ohio spent $109 thousand I spent $40 thousand. The van is not safe to drive. I have documents from the Toyota dealer that the steering turn more left than turns to the right. I have more documents.

  • 49,000 miles
I have a 2015 Toyota Sienna SE. I am currently at 49092 miles and am purchasing my third set of tires. The tire wear on this vehicle is abnormally high. I have purchased high quality tires (Bridgestone 80K warranty, and Michelin 60K). First set of factory issued tires were worn down to 3/32-4/32 in 24000 miles, second set was used to 4/32 in 25000 miles. Vehicle is driven under normal conditions, both highway and city driving. This is a significant safety issue to me in regards to handing, steering and stopping and it feel it may be attributed to the design of the vehicle itself to include the suspension components, frame setup, and weight of vehicle.

I have a 2015 Toyota Sienna xle with 35,800 miles. - (no specific conditions or driving styles) it is on it's third transmission (second replacement was at 29,800 miles) - newest recall on the side doors opening randomly. - (no specific conditions or driving styles. Happens completely randomly) cruise control lever light flickering. It was replaced three times now. It was just replaced the third time recently, so I'll see if it happens again. - (no specific conditions or driving styles. Happens completely randomly) dash randomly freezes for about 5 minutes and then resets to the default settings (it has happened seven times and continuing) and Toyota still cannot figure out the problem. - (while driving on a clear day on a city street) climate control shut off completely by itself without touching any buttons while driving. I was able to turn it back on, but it should not shut off without any action. - bad support bearing for axle on front passenger side (22,900 miles)
