| Description of the problem | The sienna 2004 front seat belts are getting frequently jammed and folded and unable to fully retract. This is a problem that has been happening with alot of the sienna owners. The belts are getting jammed, and unless you use a plier to twist to unfold to be able to get it to its retracting position. It is a driving hazard as there is alot of slack on the seat belt when the retraction is jammed. I took to dealer and said the whole seat belt system needs to be replaced. I feel this is a defect with the manufacturing and a recall needs to be made on this issue. It is happening on these vehicle after 4-5 years of use. |
