| Description of the problem | Toyota sienna 2004, rear liftgate struts are giving our again. We have had this auto since the factory sent it to the dealership. Once replacing the struts due to recall. Now whenever you lift the gate via manually pressing the button on the back of the van, the lift gate only opens halfway. This leaves the operator with the only option of pressing further up on the lift gate. I expect that this issue will now get worse and not stay open at all. |
