Description of the problem	We have a 2006 toyota sienna that we have had for 3 years. Yesterday the passenger side automatic door jammed. I had to manually close it as far as i could. I had to drive around with it partially open. When i got home i got down under it and noticed that a piece of plastic casing that surrounds the cable(that shuts the door) was cracked open, it had split off of the cable and was wrapping all around the wheels that slide in the channel that shuts the door. There was also a larger piece of plastic that had broken off somewhere up inside the door. Now the automatic door won't work at all, nor will it open or shut manually without a lot of force. I called the dealership and found out that there was not a recall on this which is surprising us because of all of the complaints online about this problem. The dealer informed me that it would cost $1200-1500 to fix the problem because the cable is combined with the motor. Obviously the design is inferior and they have used cheap plastic parts in the manufacturing. I also think toyota is price gouging because their design is combined into a "one unit" price to fix this problem. Now we are going to be forced to cut the cable that runs the automatic door, just to be able to operate the door manually. Who can afford to put out that kind of money for a door motor? My vehicle only has 68,000 miles on it. Please help us. Help the little guy. Toyota has already given out extended warranty/recalls on this vehicle for the two front doors - popping. And the rear hatch struts. I think this problem should be added to this list. Toyota needs to be held responsible for this poor workmanship. Thank you for your consideration.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
