2004 Toyota SIENNA Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	918770
Internal NHTSA #	10457363
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	SIENNA
Model Year	2004
File date	19/11/11
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Car rolled back while on a slope with parking brake fully applied, in park, and engine off. Rolled back about 6-9 inches as soon as footbrake was released, with a child immediately behind car at that time. I later found the problem is a worn rear differential front support arm used on all sienna awd's, and likely other toyota's that share the same awd drivetrain design. Per the toyota owner boards, it apparently commonly fails and sells for over $200 for just the part. However, it really concerns me here because when it fails, it allows play in the driveline, which then results in the car being able to roll for 6 inches plus even w/ parking brake applied until it reaches the limit of its play. On a slope and with someone just in front or behind the car that could result in serious injury or even death by either impact or crushing. Dangerous design and poor reliability.
