It is acceptable for you to expect go through (2) transmissions on a family owned and operated mini van to get 150K miles out of a $40K "luxury" vehicle? First transmission was "replaced" at 57K, under warranty. Currently at 148K miles. Facing a $2000 bill from the Toyota dealer for a transfer case seal repair. Called Toyota. Assigned a "Case Manager", Dan. He states since there is no service record with Toyota after drive train warranty expired and the car has 148K miles, Toyota is not accountable. He would not transfer me to a supervisor and hung up on me. I called back and am waiting for a return call from a "Supervisor". Our first and last Toyota purchase.
Van for family on the go!

This van was a big part of my family growing up! It provided safety, comfort, security and reliability. It hauled my family thru grade school, middle school, high school then on to college. I think it could drive its self to the beach. It has tremendous room for passengers and cargo. Toyota reliability is all they say it is. The comfort when traveling on trips is outstanding and the fuel economy is still above 20 MPG on the road. It is an older model so it doesn't have the latest technology.

297,000 miles going strong! Changed timing belt, water pump, rotors, alignment and battery within the year but it’s regular maintenance! Oil change every 3,000 miles with synthetic oil. I love my van. Drives so smooth! Only thing that doesn’t work are the power sliding doors. I’m use to it. Manual it is.

Purchased new in 2006 and driven only on well paved roads in an urban environment. Additional more frequent than would normally be expected of the Toyota brand, I consider excessive. All routine and recommended maintenance and or repairs was done always according to recommended schedule or Toyota service dept recommendations. The cabin design and comfort of this vehicle are outstanding. Reliability from a mechanical perspective has been VERY disappointing. Also, there have been numerous service bulletins and recalls over the years I owned and have driven this vehicle. Toyota always has been rated highly but my experience is such that the brand would not be my frost choice in the future nor could I recommend it to others. Also, my repair experience history leads me to question and wonder how Toyota receives consistently hi reviews .....what drives these reviews, what really motivates the rankings Toyota receives? My Sienna will not be one of those that supposedly is driven 200,000+ miles. Doing so is far too costly in repair bills.

Unfortunately, I have to say that after 6 years my Sienna XLE is falling apart around me. All the trim inside the vehicle have or are in process of breaking. The CD player stopped working when the car was 4 years old, the radio goes in and out when it rains or doesn't work at all. The brakes had to be replaced at 38,000 miles, belts replaced, tires OHHH the Run Flat saga. I have never had more flat tires than with the run flats (ironically enough). I personally can not recommend this vehicle to anyone and after a lifetime of owning and driving Toyotas I will not be purchasing another one. Another car company that forgot what made them great. So Sad.
