| Description of the problem | Their is a recall on the automatic sliding doors but toyota has failed to correct the issue. The back doors unlatch automatically and have propelled open twice while i was driving my children!! I brought it into service and they told me they disabled the electronic opening function and i would have to open and close the doors manually until toyota has permanent solution. It turns out they only pressed the power switch on my dash board and the doors continue to unlatch automatically. I will manually close the door and once driving i hear them trying to open. I've had to pull over and manually shut them tight but last night it flew open while i was driving without any warning that it had unlatched!! I'm paying $420. 00 a month in a lease contract for a car that is unsafe. Toyota has failed to remedy the problem and dealers refuse to help me get out of this vehicle despite the fact that it is dangerous! |
