| Description of the problem | The cable that opens the power sliding doors snapped making the door unable to open. This occurred on the passenger side in april of 2013 at 58,000 and then to the driver side door in august of 2014 at 76,000. We were able to use our extended warranty to pay for the first door. The price to repair this problem is $1,00 to $1,400. Toyota has a recall for this problem up to the 2008 model, but will not repair our vehicle because it is a 2009. To me, this is an obvious design flaw and presents a danger because passengers can't exit that side in an emergency. |
