We bought the car because of the room inside. We had problems with the engine not always starting when it is hot outside and dealer says “no problems found”. Not fun in 105 degrees heat! After a dozen visits- we gave up!! Back seats constantly rattle and dealer has made adjustments to the tracking system over a dozen times. Nice driving car but I would not buy it again under any conditions. It has 70,000 miles on it now and I’m glad we bought the pre-paid maintenance plan and extended warranty. Van is used only for adults and children have never been in it. I would hate to see what would happen if it had to endure constant wear and tear from children. Tired of dealerships not being able to isolate and fix why the car won’t start in excessive heat and getting stranded. The last straw was when the radio system fouled and it sounded like an air horn going off you couldn’t stop. I almost wrecked the car with passengers in it. Toyota extended warranty did replace it but I cannot afford to be stranded alone or with passengers. I’m almost 70 and the van is no longer reliable. I miss the size and room but now we have a Suburu Outback.

Gave the Sienna another chance but now regret it.

We were pretty happy with our 2015 Toyota Sienna LE and drove it to almost 200,000 miles. Our only issue was with how fast the Sienna went through tires even with normal use. Rotated and balanced the tires as recommended and even used two different brand tires but would have to replace all the tires at 40,000 miles (purchased 65-80,000 Mile Warranty tires from Michelin and Yokohama). Was told by the Costco tire department that 2004-05 Sienna's had a known problem. When it was time for a new vehicle, we were torn between the Odyssey and Sienna. We ended up choosing the Sienna because we liked our local dealer and, of course, they would have fixed the tire issue over the course of 10 years, right? Nope! Just had to replace all 4 tires on the new Sienna (with 26,000 miles) due to excessive wear on outer ring of tire to the point they were legally bald. The middle and inner part of tire had normal use so we were told to have the alignment checked. Alignment came back fine but we were recommended to have the camber bolt replaced at the cost of $280 dollars. None of this is covered under warranty. We will be moving to a Honda Odyssey when our lease is up in a year.

Good, except gas mileage and 2nd row

Good power and handling for such a large vehicle. A lot of interior space. The regular maintenance itemized by Toyota is a small list, including oil changes only every 10k miles. I like that the powertrain is relatively standard (e.g. no engine start/stop, cylinder de-activation, direct injection, timing belt, or CVT), which I hope translates to high reliability, so far it has. Problems: 1. Center console latch broke. Fixed under warranty. 2. Brake rotors were replaced under warranty. 2. Minor paint flakes missing on front and rear bumper areas. 3. Alarm light flashes when parked, even if not locked. Dealership said this is normal, but I don't think it occurred when new. Issues with design: 1. I wish the van was not so large. It is not "mini" at all. The size of the Ford Transit Connect would be preferable, for me. 2. Poor gas mileage. This obviously partly correlates to the "standard" powertrain I like, and to the size of the vehicle. And it is inline with the EPA ratings, so no surprise. Just wish it was better. 3. The 2nd row is terrible. The 8 seater's 2nd row middle seat is ridiculously narrow, short, and the seat bottom is lower than the adjacent seats. Also, there is no LATCH attachments for the middle seat. It is almost useless. Finally, when you remove the 2nd row seats, there are runners in the tracks that remain. This makes it a non-flat load floor and the runners could get damaged when hauling items. Just an absolutely terrible design by Toyota for the 2nd row. Look at the Honda for how it should be done. 4. The 3rd row only has 2 sets of LATCH anchors, and one of them is in the middle of the wider section of the 60/40 split seat. So, you could not have two passengers in that section if you use the LATCH. Again, the Honda gets this right. 5. Not a full size spare tire.

Unsafe! Do not buy!

I lease a 2015 Toyota Sienna. The power sliding doors have been on recall for MONTHS now without any permanent solution. Temporary solution is to turn off power to the door. My power has been off for MONTHS, yet I'm still paying my full leasing price. No one will take blame for this and I keep getting bounced from one person to another. Today I was on the phone for hours being transfer and did not get any solution. The doors are on manual yet it took me 25 minutes to get the door to stay closed today, in a store parking lot with 2 kids while being 8 months pregnant. Finally get it closed. Get home, taking my 2 year daughter out of her carseat and the door magically slams shut! When it was in the locked open position. Thank God No one was hurt. I'm so glad this is how Toyota treats their customers. I can not wait til my lease is up and they can shove this van up their butt. I will NEVER get another Toyota nor recommend this company to anyone. This van is completely unsafe.

The family loves the new van

Overall a very good van. The ride is smooth and the seating is comfortable. I'm 6'3" and have plenty of head and leg room. Accelerating to highway speed is quick (for a van) and stable. I haven't played with the sound system or bluetooth so can't give an opinion on those. The only negatives I've noticed are that the rear seat headrests slightly block the view out of the back window, but they can be folded down when not in use. It would also be nice if the center display screen was angled towards the driver a bit, or able to pivot left and right. Not a deal breaker at all, just wishful thinking.
