| Description of the problem | My 2006 toyota sienna has only 66,500 miles on it and when i took it to the dealer for inspections, i was told that it needed a new power steering rack and a wheel alignment to go with it. The charge for the same is $1300 plus. I am seeing several people having the same issue with the 2006 toyota sienna. When i called toyota about it, they mentioned that my vehicle is not under recall for this purpose. It does seem to be a design issue and i believe toyota should take ownership of this issue. |
