 Description of the problemMy wife was shopping with my 3 year old daughter and dog and couldn't get the drivers side auto sliding door to shut. I arrived and noticed the cable sheathing was frayed approximately 6 inches in from the pulley system. The door would auto slide until this frayed part hit the pulley, seize and return open. I manually tried pulling the door shut thinking i could get the frayed part through the pulley, but i guess the tolerances were too tight and it wouldn't allow closure. The local toyota dealership told me to cut the cable so i cut the tensioner cable portion behind the door to allow it to close. After dropping off at the toyota, they demanded a $1000 upfront fee from my wife for a new motor. I am trying to get them to cancel the motor purchase since the motor still works, but haven't gotten through yet. The locking mechanism still works (after i cut the cable and was able to shut the door). With the number of complaints, nhtsa needs to bring this up to toyota and make a recall.
