| Description of the problem | Recently started having this issue while driving on the highway. When changing lanes my door open indicator light as well as the exclamation inside the triangle will illuminate on my dash, a beeping sound starts chiming and all the interior lights come on. This happens about 15 times in a 20 minute period. Its very aggravating and distracting. It has gotten worse and does it on side streets and lower speeds as well now. I have done some trouble shooting of my own and realize that it only happens when i have a window cracked or down. If the windows are up it will also happen with sharp turns ending with abrupt braking. I have been pulled over 3 times in a 4 month period because of the lights going on and off. Police seem to think i'm sending some type of code for them to help me! It is ridiculous. Aside from this lighting/ door issue i am also having trouble with the sliding doors closing on me while trying to remove my 10 month old son from his carseat. I bought this van used at 99,000 miles. I now have around 120,000. I believe this should be an issue repaired by a toyota recall. I have googled and found multiple complaints about this exact same issue from people that have the same year/make/ model as myself. Upon browsing through the recalls on this site i noted these id#s that seem to be the same type of issue #11025347 #10995738 #10986378 campaign # 16v858000 (structure) #10928386 |
