| Description of the problem | In december we took our 2004 sienna in because the rear liftgate began closing on us expectedly. We have 3 young children and fear they will be seriously injured or killed. I see there is an investigation into this exact problem. Both toyota corporate & the dealership have refused to fix it because it is out of warranty. *nm |
