Description of the problem	I have a 2004 toyota sienna with power liftgate. On number of occasions, starting on the jan 29,2010, the lift gate would go up and rather than staying up, it start closing. When this initially happened, i was getting under the liftgate as it opened to grab a bag and quickly moved out of the way when i realized that the liftgate was starting close. On number of times, i had to manually push the gate up as it was closing to getting it to stay open. Today on feb 4th, i took the sienna to the dealer at morristown, nj and they told me that there was nothing wrong. When i relayed to him that there was a recall regarding this incident, they looked it up tin their system and told me that my car was not the right model. I subsequently, checked my service record and indeed the struts for the liftgate were recalled and replaced by the same dealer in dec.,2008. Now, a little over a year and 15,000 miles of driving, this problem is happening as described per recall message. I am worried that this issue has not been resolved or the struts that they replaced may be defective. *jb
