| Description of the problem | 2004 toyota sienna. The van currently has only 5,660 miles. Odor problems from beginning and eventually, it was discovered that water has been continually flooding into the van from underneath. Water problem was supposedly corrected, but the van still has a strong moldy odor and people develop constant headaches when driving in van. Van was bought at 2,330 miles and misrepresented as a demo van, when actually it was pre-owned. Apparently previous owners were unable to use van because of being sickened by odor and now van is standing for same reason. Currently in talks with dealer and manufacturer regarding problem. Van needs to be returned to dealer/manufacturer. This is a problem that cannot be corrected since apparently there is mold from the water that was allowed to stand for almost a year, and this is a health issue.*ak |
