| Description of the problem | We have a 2004 sienna ce that we bought new. Since owning the car (it has 125,000 miles on it) the sliding doors have frozen shut whenever the weather is cold. Living in vermont, i thought that this issue was isolated. However, when my son tried to open the door and the handle snapped off because the door was frozen shut once again, i decided to check to see if there were other complaints. Yes there were... Many. I had to pay to have the handle replaced but was told that the door freezing shut was a typical complaint. |
