2009 Toyota Sienna

Odometer Fraud. The contact owned a 2009 Toyota Sienna. The contact discovered a mileage discrepancy after the vehicle was sold. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of the sale, the vehicle mileage was 253,000. The contact posted the sale on Craigslist, and several days after the sale, the contact noticed that the vehicle was posted back on Craigslist for sale. The contact discovered that the new owner had rolled back the mileage on the odometer to 126,000. The ad on Craigslist was showing the fraudulent mileage.

The driver's side sliding door was stuck and I was struggling with it. Suddenly, the quarter panel window shattered (the window between the door and the back of the car) and the door came halfway off the track. It's important to note that this was not the window of the door I was struggling with and nothing visible hit the window. Luckily, my baby was not yet in his seat which is right next to the window. It is normal for people to struggle with a stuck door. If a non-visibly connected window suddenly shatters it is a significant safety risk.

On my 2009 Toyota Sienna XLE V6 FWD. The anti-slip indicator light improperly turns-on on dry roads at safe speeds. This causes a distraction to the driver.

Vehicle has an unknown electrical draw this draining the battery every night, making vehicle unusable even in emergency. Mechanic has confirmed draw but is unable to find short.

Out of nowhere my vehicle started making a whining noise and then stopped moving then all these lights popped on my Dash getting it towed to a shop to come to find out that the solenoids for the transmission had went bad thank goodness I was on a side road only doing 25 mph I couldn't imagine being on the freeway doing 65 when this happened there has been numerous numerous other reports have the same issue

The cables for the rear power sliding doors snapped on my car causing the door to be jammed shut. When the second one broke approximately two weeks later it's snap back whipping nearly hitting my three-year-old son

Dashboard is sticky and extreme cracking. Makes it hard to see when sunlight hits dashboard. Have tried everything to try and get stickiness off. Nothing has worked.

The rear passenger side sliding door cable and motor assembly on the Toyota Sienna failed, causing the door to become completely inoperative (cannot open nor close) and the broken cable nearly cut my wife as it broke under tension and came flying out toward her as she was trying to close the door normally. The cable and motor had been replaced in 2015. The cable and motor on the rear driver side sliding door was also replaced in 2013 and 2017. The problem was confirmed by Woburn Toyota (dealer) and reported to the manufacturer. The manufacturer has confirmed the failure and safety defect, but refuses to provide repairs. No warnings were provided, no recall was issued, and customers were not notified of internal safety bulletin POL12-02 issued by Toyota.

USUALLY MOVING BETWEEN 25- 45 MPH. ON ANY ROAD. THE VSC, TRACTION CONTROL, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. FOR NO REASON THIS HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN DAILY. I HAVE LOOKED INTI THIS AND NUMEROUS, NUMEROUS PEOPLE EXPERIENCE TGE SAME PROBLEM

ON DRY PAVEMENT DRIVING ABOUT 35-40 MILES AN HOUR THE VSC TRACTION SENSOR CAME ON LIGHTS AND SOUND AND HIT MY BRAKES MY STEERING WENT TO THE RIGHT I ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. *TR

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: REGARDING CUSTOMER SUPPORT PROGRAM (ZTS): WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR REAR SLIDING DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLIES ON CERTAIN 2004-2010MY SIENNA VEHICLES AND POWER SLIDING DOOR CABLE ASSEMBLY ON CERTAIN 2004-2007MY SIENNA VEHICLES. I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT MY 2009 SIENNA SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY EXTENSION. A FEW YEARS AGO OUR CABLE SNAPPED ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. I WAS TOLD BY MY DEALER AND TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT MY MODEL YEAR WAS NOT COVERED BY THE ABLE ASSEMBLY ISSUE. I WAS QUOTED APPROXIMATELY $2K FOR THIS REPAIR. WELL, WITH THE CRAZINESS OF THE PANDEMIC, I DECIDED TO DO THIS REPAIR MYSELF. I PURCHASED THE ATTACHED PARTS LIST IN THE SCAN MYSELF. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE IMAGES: THERE ARE SCREWS MISSING AROUND THE PULLEY SYSTEM, THE CABLE CRACKED THE HOUSING AND PROCEEDED TO TEAR UP THE SOUND INSULATION. THANKFULLY THE CABLE DID NOT HARM ANY OTHER KEY AREAS OF THE DOOR. THIS BLATANT DISREGARD FOR THE 2009 MODEL YEAR IS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING. I AM SURE THERE ARE OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE.

BOTH SIDES POWER SLIDING DOORS HAD A CABLE BROKEN THAT ACTIVATES AUTOMATIC DOOR FUNCTION, IT ALSO OBSTRUCTS MANUALLY OPENING DOORS CREATING AN EGRESS HAZARD. BOTH DOORS CAN ONLY BE MANUALLY OPENED PARTIAL WAY. AVERAGE PERSON ENTERS/EXITS REAR SEATS WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY DUE TO THE SLIDING DOOR OBSTRUCTION.

THE DASHBOARD ON THIS VEHICLE IS ESSENTIALLY MELTING AND TURNING INTO A STICKY, TACKY GLUE WHICH CREATES A BLINDING GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD FOR THE DRIVER WHILE DRIVING. TOYOTA DID HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS THAT THEY PUT INTO EFFECT AFTER THE PROBLEM BECAME PUBLIC BUT THEY PUT A TIME LIMIT ON IT AND MY VEHICLE STARTED HAVING THE ISSUE JUST OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD. IN FACT I HAD THE VEHICLE EVALUATED IN 2017 DURING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD AND WAS TOLD IT DID NOT QUALIFY BECAUSE I APPARENTLY WAS TAKING CARE OF MY VEHICLE TOO WELL. NOW TOYOTA IS SAYING I'LL HAVE TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD MYSELF. IT IS REALLY HARD TO DRIVE ON BRIGHT DAYS BECAUSE THE GLARE IS AWFUL.

2009 TOYOTA SIENNA WITH 134K MILEAGE HAS SRS WARNING LIGHT ON ALL OF A SUDDEN AND STAYS ON. TOYOTA DEALER WOULD CHARGE ME FOR DIAGNOSING AND CHARGE ME IF ANY FURTHER JOBS NEED TO BE DONE. SHOULDN'T THIS BE RECALLED AND HANDLED WITHOUT ANY CHARGE TO OWNERS AS IT'S MATTER OF SAFETY ISSUE?

OIL COOLER LINE FAILURE: WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE ROUTE IN A RURAL AREA MY OIL COOLER LINE RUPTURED IN MY 2009 TOYOTA SIENNA, RESULTING IN MAJOR LOSS OF ENGINE OIL, THUS BEING STRANDED IN A RURAL AREA AND REQUIRING A TOW. THE METAL OIL LINE WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH A SECTION OF RUBBER IN THE MIDDLE WHICH DETERIORATES AND FAILS. TOYOTA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS, AND FIRST CHANGED THE RUBBER COMPOSITION IN A REPLACEMENT PART BUT THIS PART STILL HAD A SIGNIFICANT FAILURE RATE. SO THE CURRENT REPLACEMENT IS ALL METAL LINE. WHY WOULD YOU HAVE A RUBBER SECTION IN AN OIL LINE? OBVIOUSLY THE FIRST TWO DESIGNED PARTS WERE A VERY POOR DESIGN. TOYOTA ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR SIENNAS FOR 10 YEARS AND 150,000 MILES BUT THIS HAS SINCE EXPIRED. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. WHY EXPIRE A WARRANTY IF THE VEHICLE IS STILL WITHIN THE PARAMETERS OF THE WARRANTY (10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES)? TOYOTA SAYS THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. BUT AS A RETIRED CORPORATE SAFETY MANAGER/ENGINEER WITH A MAJOR TIRE MANUFACTURER I DISAGREE. THERE ARE POTENTIAL FIRE ISSUES FROM OIL BEING SPRAYED ON A HOT ENGINE/EXHAUST, A ROADSIDE ACCIDENT POTENTIAL ESPECIALLY IF YOU SUDDENLY LOST OIL WHERE YOU COULDN'T PULL OFF AND THE MOTOR SEIZED, AND A SECURITY ISSUE DEPENDING ON WHEN AND WHERE YOU BREAK DOWN. WHAT IF YOU HAD LITTLE KIDS AND BROKE DOWN IN A RURAL AREA (NO HEAT). I WILL END UP PAYING $94 FOR A TOW, $500 TO FIX, AND 4-7 DAYS CAR RENTAL TO FIX. BUT MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THE SAFETY ISSUE.

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR RECENTLY BEGAN TO OPEN ON ITS OWN RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING, SOMETHING MAY BE WRONG WITH THE LATCH, IT IS NOT HOOKING/ENGAGING TO THE CAR FRAME. MY WIFE MADE A LEFT TURN YESTERDAY AND THE PASSENGER REAR DOOR SLID OPEN, LUCKILY MY 7 YEAR OLD SON WAS BUCKLED IN. ALSO, THE CABLES TO THE DRIVER SIDE REAR SLIDING DOORS POPPED OFF ABOUT A YEAR AGO, BELIEVE IT WAS DUE TO RUST/CORROSION...

ON MARCH 19, 2019 THE SUNROOF AND SUNROOF COVER FLEW OFF MY VEHICLE AS I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HAD NO IDEA WHY THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I FOUND OUT AFTER SPEAKING TO MY CAR INSURANCE COMPANY THAT THERE IS A RECALL FROM WEBASTO, THE MANUFACTURER OF THE SUNROOF. THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS SHOULD BE 100% AWARE OF THIS AND SENDING OUT NOTICES TO OWNERS. THIS COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE AND WEBASTO IS FORCING CUSTOMERS TO USE A REPAIR FACILITY THEY CHOOSE. TOYOTA SHOULD BE ISSUING RECALL NOTICES AND REPAIRING THESE VEHICLES ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

THE AIRBAG LIKE CAME ON AND HAS NOT GONE OFF. HAD MECHANIC CHECK IT AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SQUIB CIRCUIT HAD A SHORT AND THAT IF IN AN ACCIDENT AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY. DEALER SAID IT COULD COST UP TO $2600 TO FIX. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER SIENNA OWNERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHY HAS TOYOTA NOT RECALLED THIS, BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR THERE FAULTY PRODUCT. NOW BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY EQUIPMENT I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE BECAUSE I CAN NOT AFFORD THAT KIND OF MONEY TO REPAIR.

THE DRIVER SIDE SLIDE DOOR AFTER I OPENED IT , THE CABLE THAT CONTROLS THE OPEN AND SHUT BROKE. THE VAN WAS NOT RUNNING OR MOVING I HAD JUST OPENED THE DOOR THEN HEARD IT SNAP

THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR CABLE BROKE & AUTO SLIDE DOOR NO LINGER WORKS. STATIONARY.
