| Description of the problem | Our 2006 toyota sienna had one of the automatic sliding door cables snap at approximately 60,000 miles. We contacted toyota, however at this time it is not a concern of theirs. With the cable broken it makes the door extremely heavy as long as you have the auto-slide on. I feel it is way to dangerous for my 2 or 5 yr old to use the door! We purchased this vehicle for $35,000+ with the sliding doors being one of its highest selling points in our eyes. We are highly disappointed in toyota's repair cost of over $1,500, but most of all their lack of concern for safety as most minivan owners have small children! |
