2015 Toyota Sienna

BRAKE SHAKING/SHUTTER UPON BRAKING DOWN A STEEP HILL. THE 2015 SIENNA AWD HAS 45,000 MILES. THE SIENNA HAS MOSTLY BEEN DRIVEN ON FLAT TO MILD SLOPED INTERSTATE ROADS THAT DO NOT REQUIRE BRAKING. RECENT INSPECTION BY A TIRE SHOP REPORTS 12/32 REMAINING ON BRAKE PADS SHOWING MINIMAL TO NO WEAR. UPON DRIVING DOWN A STEEP ROAD REQUIRING BRAKING TO CONTROL SPEED THERE WAS VIOLENT SHAKING/SHUTTER IN THE FRONT END. THINKING SOMETHING WAS BROKEN, REDUCED THE SPEED AND USED TRANSMISSION TO CONTROL SPEED TO REDUCE BRAKE APPLICATION. THIS RELIEVED THE VIOLENT SHAKING. CHECKING INTERNET THERE IS A TOYOTA TSB FOR THIS PROBLEM REPLACING BRAKE PADS AND ADDITIONAL WORK. THE PROBLEM HAS TO BE REPORTED TO TOYOTA WITHIN THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED BY TOYOTA. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY A SAFETY RECALL WHEN OEM REMAIN ON THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND ONE DAY ABS MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON DUE TO FAULTY HARNESS ON A 3 YEAR OLD 35,000 MILE VEHICLE. THIS REDUCES THE ABILITY OF THE VEHICLE TO STOP NORMALLY AS IT SHOULD THIS ALSO DISABLES THE TRACTION CONTROL ON THE VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING IN RAIN WITHOUT ANY TRACTION CONTROL AND IT WAS SCARY. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY KEEP STATING THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. IT IS $500+ REPAIR TO ABS SYSTEM DUE TO THEIR FAULTY PARTS. I JUST NEED THIS TO BE ON THE RECORD INCASE SOMETHING HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING A TOYOTA SIENNA.

THE SIDE POWER SLIDING DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY 100% OF THE TIME USING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM WHEN IN PARK. THIS IS HAPPENING IN BOTH DOORS. RECALL ON THE DOORS OPENING WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THIS HAPPENS MORE ON AN INCLINE BUT DOES HAPPEN ON FLAT GROUND. SEEMS MORE PREVALENT WHEN THE DOORS ARE USED FREQUENTLY.

VAN WOULD REBOOT WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING. IT STARTED WITH DASHBOARD REBOOTING THEN I COULDN'T START THE VAN. THERE WAS A TIME AFTER DRIVING I PUT THE VAN IN PARK AND TURNED IT OFF BUT MY VAN WAS MOVING ON IT'S OWN. I ALWAYS CALL THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THE REBOOTING OCCURS. I WAS TOLD EITHER IT WAS A SOFTWARE ISSUE OR SINCE THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY, I SHOULD BE FINE. WELL RECENTLY WHEN MY VAN STALLED AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A BATTERY ISSUE AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. WHEN I PICKED UP MY VAN AND WENT HOME, NOTICED MY REAR VIEW CAMERA WOULD NOT COME ON WENT I PUT THE VAN IN REVERSE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO TELL THEM WHAT'S GOING ON AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR WOMAN WAS VERY RUDE AND STATED IT WAS BATTERY AND THEY NEVER CHECKED ANYTHING ELSE. I STATED TO THE WOMAN THE I'VE ALWAYS EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE VAN REBOOTING, WON'T START, OR MOVING ON IT'S OWN. THE WOMAN BECAME VERY RUDE AND HUNG UP ON ME. I DECIDED TO GO RIGHT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON THE WAY THERE I CALLED BACK TO SPEAK TO THE MANAGER OF SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO EXPLAIN WHAT'S GOING ON. WHILE DRIVING THERE THE CHECK ENGINE AND ANOTHER LIGHT TURNED ON. SHORTLY AFTER THAT AS I WAS TURNING LEFT, WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION MY VAN STALLED. THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES LOCKED AND THE VAN COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. I WAS LOCKED IN MY VAN WITH NO CONTROL OVER THE VAN AND IT WAS MOVING TOWARDS A POLE. LUCKILY THE VAN STOPPED BEFORE HITTING ANYONE OR ANYTHING. I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER THE ENTIRE TIME. THE MANAGER CALLED FOR SOMEONE TO PICK ME UP AND CALLED A TOW COMPANY. I ASKED THE MANGER IF THEY ARE STATING MY ISSUE WAS A BATTERY AND A NEW BATTERY WAS INSTALLED WHY AM I STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THE POLICE WAS CALL BECAUSE SOMEONE REPORTED MY VAN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION.

MY 2015 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE 8 PASSENGER TYRE WEAR LESS THAN 25 K. I CHANGED MY FACTORY INSTALLED TYRE ON 24 K , AFTER THAT I DID 2 ALIGNMENTS AND REGULAR TYRE ROTATION TILL MY ODO NOW 39 K , MY FRONT WHEELS ARE READY FOR REPLACEMENT IN ANOTHER 2-3 K MILES. FRONT WHEELS ARE WEARING UNEVEN, ITS OUTSIDE RIM IS WEARING OUT. IT IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURER, PLEASE HELP THE CUSTOMERS. I M NOT ABLE TO CHANGE FULL SET TYRE WORTH 600 DOLLAR EVERY 20K MILES.

I AM ON MY 3RD SET OF TIRES (INCLUDING ORIGINAL) IN A 3 YEAR OLD VAN. MY SECOND SET WAS PURCHASED AT 34449 MILES ON 12/2/16. I PURCHASED 75000 TIRES, AS OF TODAY I HAVE 78850 MILES ON THE VAN, SO I USED ONLY 44401 MILES OF 75000 MILES TIRES. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018, I NOTICED A STRANGE WOBBLING IN THE REAR PASSENGER BACK OF THE VAN. I TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC AT REESE'S GARAGE AND I TOLD ME MY TIRE WAS ABOUT TO BLOW AND I NEEDED NEW TIRES. HE SUGGESTED I DON'T DRIVE THE VAN, AS IT WAS "UNSAFE". TOOK IT TO ANOTHER GARAGE (BARNES SERVICE CENTER) AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SIENNA. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND LEARNED THAT THIS IS INDEED A PROBLEM!! I CONTACTED THE EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF TOYOTA, AND THEY INDICATED THAT OTHER FACTORS MUST BE CONSIDERED. MY ALIGNMENT WAS GOOD, MY SHOCKS/STRUTS ARE GOOD, I DON'T DRIVE A LOT, JUST TO & FROM MY KIDS SCHOOL, SPORTING EVENTS, AND I DON'T DRIVE LIKE I'M IN THE DAYTONA 500. THERE WAS EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT MY VAN IS "UNSAFE" AND ALMOST HAD 2 BLOW OUTS. I PUT MY CONCERNS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND I LEARNED THERE ARE MANY SIENNA OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT TIRES WEARING TOO QUICKLY. TOYOTA NEEDS TO FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CHILDREN IN THE VAN.

I HAVE A 2015 TOYOTA SIENNA SE. I AM CURRENTLY AT 49092 MILES AND AM PURCHASING MY THIRD SET OF TIRES. THE TIRE WEAR ON THIS VEHICLE IS ABNORMALLY HIGH. I HAVE PURCHASED HIGH QUALITY TIRES (BRIDGESTONE 80K WARRANTY, AND MICHELIN 60K). FIRST SET OF FACTORY ISSUED TIRES WERE WORN DOWN TO 3/32-4/32 IN 24000 MILES, SECOND SET WAS USED TO 4/32 IN 25000 MILES. VEHICLE IS DRIVEN UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, BOTH HIGHWAY AND CITY DRIVING. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE TO ME IN REGARDS TO HANDING, STEERING AND STOPPING AND IT FEEL IT MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE ITSELF TO INCLUDE THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS, FRAME SETUP, AND WEIGHT OF VEHICLE.

THE SLIDING DOORS ON BOTH SIDES ARE NOT CLOSING WITH THE CLOSER BUTTONS. IT GOES SO FAR AND THEN OPENS BACK UP. YOU HAVE TO HOLD ONTO THE DOOR AND FORCE IT TO CONTINUE TO CLOSE. EVEN WHEN STATIONARY WITH THE VAN IN PARK THE DOORS HAVE COME OPEN WITHOUT ANYONE NEAR THEM. I AM WORRIED THEY WILL OPEN WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES THE MOST RECENT WAS TODAY.
