| Description of the problem | I own a 2004 toyota sienna. The cable on both sliding doors broke and the doors do not open automatically we have to open and close them manually which is very difficult for my small kids. Sometimes the doors jam and do not close properly. I am worried about the safety of my kids. My van has only 65k miles on it. I have contacted toyota and my local toyota dealer. They told my it will cost me about $3400 dollars to fix both doors. I can not pay this kind of money especially on a problem that seems to be common with all 2004-2006 sienna vans. I think toyota should issue a recall and fix their defective products. |
