| Description of the problem | The automatic rear sliding door on the driver side broke. I can see that toyota acknowledged the problem and extended a warrant to 9 years or 120,000 miles (whichever comes first). Well, my vehicle has over 120,000 miles and i am now unable to use the door at all. After doing research i have found that many people are experiencing the same problem. I think this should be a recall and not a warranty extension. I have no way of currently opening the door. This is a major safety concern considering i have three small children. If something were to happen, an accident or any other circumstance to get to my children quickly, i would not be able to. The automatic doors was the selling point for our purchase of this van. Toyota says to come in and have the automatic door deactivated so that we can use it manually. To have it fixed costs between $1,000 and $3,000. |
