| 2000 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I BOUGHT THIS 2000 SIENNA NEW. I HAVE HAD THREE MAJOR PROBLEMS IN TWO YEARS. THE LATEST FAILURE IS ON TRANSMISSION. TOYOTA REPLACED IT WITH A REBUILT AND IT IS GIVING ME ALL SORTS OF PROBLEMS THAT TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE SUBSTANDARD TRANSMISSION WITH A NEW PART. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOISEY. I HAVE EXPERIENCED SLIPS IN GEARS, HESITATION IN SHIFTING , UNDERPOWER WHEN ACCELERATING BEYOND 60-65 MPH OR DRIVING ON HILLS. I HAVE DIFFICULTIES CHANGING IN AND OUT OF FAST LANES, IT IS DANGEOURS AND TOYOTA INSISTED THAT IT MEETS THE STANDARD. THE SAME ARROGANCE THAT THEY HAVE DISPLAYED WHEN I PRESENTED THEM WITH THE POWER DOOR PORBLEM. NOW THEY REVEALED TO ME THAT THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE DOOR PROBLEM BUT WHY AREN'T THEM ISSUING A RECALL. THERE WAS ALSO PROBLEM WITH THE ANTILOCK BRAKES. I NNED YOU ASSISTANCE TO RESOLVE MY TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AS WELL AS BRING THE SAFETY ISSUE ON SIENNA TO THE PUBLIC AWARENESS!*AK |
| 2000 | SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK | ABS BRAKES FAIL. THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY TOYOTA BEFORE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2001 AS A USED CAR. IN 2003 THE BRAKE PETAL STARTED TO VIBRATE THE THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON. TOYOTA DID REPAIRS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRENTEE. YESTERDAY THE LIGHT CAME ON, I STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED IT OFF AND THEN RESTARTED THE CAR. AS I STARTED TO PROCEED I HEARD THIS LOUD SOUND FROM THE BRAKES AND HAD TO STAND ON THE PETAL TO STOP THE CAR. ONCE THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN THE BRAKES WORKED FINE. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I REMOVED THE ABS FUSE AND WILL NOT REPLACE IT FOR FEAR OF A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I HAVE SENT AN E-MAIL TO TOYOTA AS WELL. I AM SENDING THIS MAINLY SO THERE IS A RECORD IN CASE OTHERS HAVE A SIMILAR PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT I WILL NOT USE THE ABS BRAKES EVEN IF TOYOTA OFFERS TO FIX THEM. THEY HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL TWICE AND I WILL NOT RIDE IN THIS CAR WITH MY GRAND KIDS. TOYOTA SIENNA 2000 |
