| Description of the problem | My rear hatch on the 2005 toyota sienna minivan does not stay up when opened. The weight of the rear door (trunk) makes this very dangerous as i put things in and take them out because i have to hold it up with one hand. No accidents or anything else occurred, so i think it is just a wear issue. The dealership is charging an excessive amount to fix it. Also my sliding passenger side door will not work automatically when the button is pushed anymore. No accidents or other damage. |
