September 30, 2001, on Toyota Sienna Review:
I have a 1999 Toyota Sienna XLE that has had chronic problems with the automatic sliding door. When the door is open, it will not close when the automatic door button is pushed. Instead, it makes a clicking sound and barely moves. Sometimes when it does close, it does not latch, so the car thinks the door is open and will not drive. The dealer claims it's my fault -- says I must have yanked on it, but the only way I've ever operated the door is by the button. The dealer says Toyota won't cover it under the warranty anymore. Has anyone else had problems with an automatic sliding door? The manual sliding door is difficult to open despite the dealer's attempts to repair it. Something squeaks and rattles in the dashboard.
