Used 2011 Toyota Sienna Consumer Reviews
Better than expected
After much debate, we sold our 2005 Sienna XLE and found a great deal on a 2011 Sienna Limited ($2200 under invoice!). The ride is superior to our 2005; I would describe it as more "plush". The interior cabin noise is much improved over the '05 as well. Overall, in our mind, the Sienna beats the honda and the nissan hands down. The ability to move the second row so far back was what sold us on the Sienna. Overall, we are really happy with the purchase.
7 years old, 72,000 miles ext.Transmission is out!
This was our first Toyota! We were looking for a reliable van one that would last 200,000+ We are 6 weeks out of warranty and the transmission is out! No warning! Just unable to shift into reverse and can't go over 20 mph. Toyota said "Sorry". Three mechanics we have talked to said this is unheard of for Toyota. One transmission guy said he usually only see Toyotas in his shop that over 200,000 miles on them. The transmission repair shop that is fixing it said the transmissions they are putting in the vans are too small. This was the first year for the 6 speed engine so perhaps that is the problem with the smaller transmissions. If you want a Sienna I would look for an older used one! This van also eats tires! This is such a disappointment and so frustration this is why we bought a Toyota so we wouldn't have this problem :(

Great Trip Van
We purchased our Sienna 14 months ago and have driven it 19k miles. We still have our 2001 Sienna with 135k miles on it and the new van has improved in every way. Didn't like the van at first because of the ride, but replaced the run flats with normal tires and it now rides and drives like a luxury vehicle. We get about 20 mpg in town and 25 mpg on the road. So far, we are very pleased.
72,000kms in uncomfortable driver seat
I have asked to replace seat with a better one but toyota didn't t have that option.I offered to buy the seat at my expense. Windshield is cheap .middle row is a bad design I am 6ft1" and have trouble lifting the seat out.then the rails are exposed .I would go back to north americian van for comfort. Tires are cheap . Van looks good performance is good . Cargo space and fuel economy are both good. Cabin filter ? Who needs that expense? Chevy bring back a 8 seater with your comfort.
Really don't like this car...
After really studying min-vans and SUVs, I decided on the Sienna, based partly on friends' recommendations, based partly on experience with Lexus (a near Toyota). Purchased a limited in April. What a disappointment!. We paid for a aftermarket navigational device. It never arrived, and we got our money back in August. In September, I hit our gate and damaged a door. the car was in the shop for 5 weeks because Toyota didn't have the parts available (according to the body shop, at least). It's noisy, big and a rough ride. Mine is once again in the shop. Brake trouble this time.
