Toyota issued a recall in fourth quarter 2025 for this batch of Toyota Siennas that have bad welds on the second row seats and as a result of these, no one should be sitting in the second row. Toyota still doesn't have a fix in place for the 50k vehicles with this problem. Publicly Toyota says a fix is on the way, but at the dealership the service department has indicated that they've heard nothing on this. I am in a loaner from Toyota for the foreseeable future and it doesn't seem like I have much recouse through lemon laws based on the way Toyota issued the recall.

The contact had been calling the local dealer and the manufacturer and was advised that the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was informed of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

The affected component appears to be the rear seat / seat track recall system. I took my Toyota vehicle to the dealership / repair center in approximately October 2025 for recall-related repair, and the vehicle was then kept there for months. During that time, I was deprived of the use of the vehicle while continuing to make lease payments. I repeatedly contacted the repair center for updates but was not provided a clear repair completion date. Toyota and the dealership later claimed that the recall had been repaired only after the stated 60-day buyback review period had expired, yet NHTSA’s VIN lookup still showed the same recall as unrepaired for my vehicle. No credible current documentation was provided showing the exact recall repair completion date or the work performed. Under these circumstances, I am not comfortable accepting return of the vehicle. My children ride in the rear seat, and because this recall involves the seat / seat track area, I cannot reasonably be expected to trust the vehicle without clear proof that the recall repair was properly completed. I have also experienced a serious accident in the past, which makes this issue even more concerning to me. At this point, I have lost confidence in Toyota’s handling of this matter. I am seeking repurchase of the vehicle and fair final resolution.

See attached document for complaint. My husband and I purchased a Sienna, 7-passenger van, April 2025 and have received two safety recalls, the first being the lack of second-row seats being installed correctly presenting a safety problem, and later a possible problem with the backup camera. We purchased a vehicle of that size especially for the convenience of transporting family when they visit. Also, we have a granddaughter, husband and one-year old great-grandson who live nearby and thought having a van would be helpful for trips together. Unfortunately, all our hopes were diminished at being able to enjoy the reason we purchased such an expensive vehicle, $65,000+. We are an elderly, retired couple, considered the vehicle an investment, because our two previous Toyota vehicles had lasted us for 15 years with no problems. Therefore hoping our daughter and grandchildren would be able to use the van for many years. The van has been nothing but an Albatross, not being able to drive it with only two passengers, in the front, since learning of the first recall on the second row seats. The local dealer told me if I’d get an appointment and be at their door at 7:00 a.m. they could repair the camera. BUT, dealers have no fix from Toyota for the second row seats. However, I went on line to the Toyota web site and they have a “FIX” process listed. I cannot imagine how a vehicle maker can be allowed to sell a vehicle when they find out it has such safety hazards? We consumers can beg our Legislators to pass laws to that effect, but, hope your agency will take the lead on protecting us consumers since we know this Congress will do nothing. I ask your agency to please take action on this issue and prod Toyota to do something concerning the major safety hazards with their 2025 model Sienna vans.

I've had the car in the shop for 3 months plus now. Toyota has not had a remedy for the impacted 55k people. We bought a Hybrid, brand new, paid it off and has been on rental for a non hybrid. Toyota won't trade in our car, refund us anything such as gas ( hybrid vs non hybrid). So we're stuck with a rental we don't like. Basically we felt like we spent $50k on a car we did not want since it's not the Sienna we wanted. I need them to be held accountable or have options we can do something with the car. We have kids that utilized the 2nd row and this is unacceptable.
