Description of the problem	Power sliding door on right side (driver side) of vehicle failed. Cable broke and door would not close. Attempted to manually close the door but cable had jammed the door in the open position. Wife drove the car home this way. I cut the broken cable and removed the ends so door functions manually. $1200 dollars to repair door. I elected not to spend $1200 to repair a cable. Cable is part of an assembly that includes the motor. I inspected the reason for the premature failure and determined the reason the cable broke was because of a door rear hinge failure. Pin had worn out slightly causing the rear of the door to sag and therefore catching the cable and breaking it. I replaced the hinge myself costing $100 and the door functions manually. This car was maintained regularly by toyota and door hinges greased. A hinge should never have failed at 4 years of life. What kind of steel is toyota using?
