C. 552(b)(6) 2011 toyota sienna turn indicator is not audible and does not disengage when changing lanes on the interstate the following letter was sent to toyota: may 16, 2010 [xxx] subject: 2011 toyota sienna turn indicator design flaw dear sir: i have been looking into buying a 2011 toyota sienna limited with all the options. So i rented a new 2011 toyota sienna le (only 900+ miles) from avis for a weeklong trip (1500 miles). The car drives very nicely. However, i was amazed that i could not hear the turn indicator beeper when driving down the interstate with the radio on at a moderate sound level. In addition, the turn indicator switch is not sensitive enough to disengage after changing lanes. Toyota |
