Description of the problem	The powered liftgate of my 2004 sienna doesn't stay up when open. It closes regardless of someone being under. I personally got hurt when the door closed one time and my son almost got pinned down as well. I am seeing on the internet a lot of people having the same problem and yet i am surprised that toyota has not issued a recall for such a serious issue. I am taking my car to the dealer to get this fixed since i cannot open the liftgate anymore due to this issue. I believe this is a problem with the gas struts that are defective. After talking to my dealer, this one doesn't seem to think this is a serious issue and that they should take care of it at no charge. Fyi i already replaced these gas struts once (yes this will be the 3rd set in 4 years!).
