One of the two support cylinders for the rear hatch on our 2004 Toyota Sienna failed in fall 2019, so the rear hatch would not stay up. The liftgate support cylinders had previously been replaced by Toyota under recall. We purchased two new support cylinders, Toyota part #68905-AE022'support cylinder' from camelback Toyota in phoenix, AZ, D/B/a Toyota parts factory, by mail, shipped 11/19/19. I installed both of the new support cylinders within a couple of weeks. Note that both of the old support cylinders were replaced with new Toyota parts, not just the one which had failed. However, with the new support cylinders, when the weather gets cool (below 50 F) and the liftgate is opened using the electric opener, the liftgate gets part way up and reverses, coming down unexpectedly. This represents a safety hazard, as the door can hit someone standing below it. This is exactly the behavior for which Toyota issued the recall on the support cylinders. The unexpected reversing happens on level ground with normal use of the liftgate. It started happening shortly after the new support cylinders were installed. Toyota customer service today told me that they would not warranty the support cylinders, even though this is a safety issue. As the problem started occurring when the 2019 support cylinders were essentially new, there is no assurance that replacing them again would solve the problem. It appears that Toyota is selling replacement support cylinders which do not meet the liftgate's support requirements.

Sliding doors don't properly latched like they are suppose to when attempting to close door causing a safety issue for passengers. It happens when vehicle is parked or motion on road way or in parking space.

- Watseka, IL, USA

Both power sliding doors freeze shut any time there are freezing temperatures and any moisture, and cannot be opened either with power or manually. Attempting to open a door will only open it 1/4", sufficient to activate the dome lamps, but then will not close. After driving and warming up, the door may randomly open at any time, presenting a safety hazard.

Took my Toyota Sienna 2004 in foe exhaust work and the technician alerted me that the car had excessive corrosion. The suspension/engine cradle was rusted out and had holes. Advised the car was unsafe to drive. Very upsetting as everything else is great with the vehicle and planned on driving it for many more miles. This is a very dangerous condition which could have resulted in injury or even death to my family or others. I have been driving around with my family in this vehicle thinking it was safe!

My van was in a parking lot. It was a clear humid 95 degree day. Hadn't rained in days. The van hadn't been washed recently. I opened the rear liftgate manually, got in the van but it wouldn't close with the interior button in several attempts. It took 4 attempts to close it manually. This is the second time this happened. I didn't make note of the number of beeps emitted. The first time it happened, I didn't take note of the weather conditions, but the liftgate would only close after repeated manual attempts.

The drivers side door check assembly has broke. The metal in the arm has torn apart and the mount to the door has torn off the frame of the door. After researching on the internet how to fix it I have seen multiple people with the same issue. It seems that the mounting to the door is weak and has a tendency to fall apart and break. Not having a door check is dangerous. This is my work vehicle and having the door swing open all the way isn't good. It can damages other peoples cars and it has me always being fearful of it swinging open all the way.

Door hinges are falling off of vehicle. Both my driver side and passenger side front doors and now my drivers side slider door hinges have fallen off. The door hinges are literally fallen off of the vehicle! my last visit to dealer 4/2017 was for yet another slider door motor repair (2X one side/ 3X the other at $1200 each). But, this time was different they told me I was lucky the slider door did not fall off driving down the road because the hinge was completely broken off!! this is now the 3rd broken hinge all on different doors. I called Toyota and they said they have met their obligation on a 14 year old vehicle. Name one other make/model/year of any manufactures vehicle that the door hinges fall off. They know, and have known for a long time, there is a problem with door hinges on Sienna 04-06 vehicle - hence their " limited warranty enhancement" issued for these problem. This is manufacturers recall not a limited warranty enhancement. You must look into to this and force Toyota to make this right! it is dangerous! most kids sit in those back seats with the slider doors. Thank goodness no one fell out of my door while driving down the road.

In grocery store parking lot, put groceries in driver side back power sliding door. Went to shut and door would not shut all the way. It was stuck.finely got it shut after, about 30 minutes.got home power cable had broken rusted and frayed.recall was found, but Toyota will not fix !!! this happen 2yrs. Ago 2014 & still trying to get this recall fixed..they said I had to many miles on the van, that I got in 2011.. it had 146,892 miles when the door cable broke & was inspected. This is very dangerous.I will not let any children sit next to that broken powered back driver sliding door !! this should be a mandatory recall !! miles should not be a concern ! life of a person should be. I'm still fighting to get this fixed & it's 2016.. broken, rusted & frayed power cable not functional & inoperative & can be very dangerous ! because it's powered with or without the automatic door feature.Toyota needs to up date this recall to a safety mandatory recall with no limits !!!!
