Description of the problem	The liftgate on my toyota sienna minivan 2005 has failed. The back door closed down after it lifts to the most open position. This is a constant failure. The dealership wanted me to pay for entire repair. I called toyota consumer affairs and after that the dealership was willing to split the over $600. 00 repair with me. I have rejected that offer, am filing this complaint and am going to go back to toyota consumer affairs to see if i can get a better resolution. My main concern is that minivan's are typically vehicles that parents with children have. Do we have to wait until a child is crushed to recall this?
