| Description of the problem | Cable that operates the sliding power door on toyota sienna xle broke. The steel cable rusted out and is exposed. The car is 5 years old and has 45,000 miles on it. Toyota says you have to replace the door motor and cable. The cost $1800-2000. Far too much money for a poorly designed opening system. The steel cable is exposed to the elements and of course it's going to rust out. |
