| Description of the problem | In nov 2013 my 2005 sienna driver door started popping, and in researching the issue, i found thousands of the same complaints on the internet which has to do with a bad spot weld; the door now has no "stop", and swings freely. Last april 2013, and more recently, the door has closed on my hand because it won't stay open by itself. Unfortunately, i am allegedly out of the "extended 5 year warranty--should be a recall" window. What is toyota doing to resolve this issue for their loyal customers? Https://www. Facebook.
