| Description of the problem | 2004 toyota sienna rear hatch hydraulics no longer hold up the hatch. The cost to replace these is $167. 71 each!! I have had numerous other problems already with the vehicle in the two years i have owned it.... Crack in radiator, failed motor on automatic window, drive shaft had to be replaced... Wand with wipers etc.. Had to be replaced. I am beginning to think i got a lemon. But the hydraulics on the hatch... After only two years. Found an article that this was being investigated by you guys involving approximately 400,000 vehicles. Has there been any resolution to this? *nm |
