Not Toyota Quality

Bought the Sienna after my Caravan died 4 years ago. I hate to say that this Sienna has been worse maintenance- wise than my Caravan. I'm on my third set of brakes, my power door locks have all been replaced and my A/C compressor went out twice. Every time I take it in to have the power door locks fixed they look get this look on their faces like it's the first time they've ever seen the problem although a friend of mine who works at a Toyota dealership told me it's been a fleet wide problem for years to include the same 4 Lexus door locks I've had replaced. Now my left CV joint is clanking. The staff at the dealership acts like they work at Rolls Royce or something. Frustrating.

almost 8 years and it was already 3 yrs old with 40k, now has 130k. I want to rave about it( we have taken it down to central Mexico, MN(2x) MI, Niagara falls, NY (2x) from Texas), but it has started to give me more repairs. at 100k had timing belt water pump etc redone. 17 months ago one of the cylinders stopped, fixed and shortly after check engine light. last summer fixed that for 500. 2 months ago starting to shake over 40mph. rack and pinion, water pump (if heater and ac don't blow correctly may be water pump), timing belt (if replacing water pump best to do timing belt at same time) and thermometer as starting to over heat. still some shake over 40mph. (Firestone has a lifetime alignment which is a great value if you hold onto your vehicles.) As getting older (11 yrs old now) the time, money, and aggravation of repairs increase. will hold onto this for several more years (maybe 6) but will not drive it on long trips any more. I have wanted to have a vehicle that I hold onto for many years, and this is it. 2 american vehicles I bought new started to give me so much trouble after 5 years that I got rid of them ( a town and country and a vibe). I think all of my vehicles will be toyotas going forward.

Excellent vehicle overall and would highly recommend except for the battery. I've lost track how many times we've had to jump start it for the most minor or unknown reasons; e.g. just using the cd player for an hour while waiting in line for a ferry or leaving the rear hatch door not completely engaged (easy to do) will result in a no start in just a couple days. I've never owned a car this sensitive to battery discharge.

Questionable Quality

Bought new three years ago and here's what I noticed. When I hit approx. 65 mph, cowl rattles. High pitch is noticed at 62 mph too. Dealer tried five times but still could not fix it. Driver side door had to be re-aligned because it was improperly installed. Power sliding door was rubbing against main body of the van--body shop took care of it. When the weather is cold, the engine idles high above 1700 rpm for 5 min. before settling down. Dealer says it's normal but did not notice this on other rental minivan. 19 mpg overall. Bought this over Honda Odyssey because it was quieter but 3.3L is inadequate for this heavy van. Overall, this is a decent van but body integrity is very poor.

Great and very accessible features for a family of 4 or more. Handles very well. Owned a dodge van before and there is no comparison in quality and reliability. Toyota stands behind their product.
