Power door locks have started to fail on my 1999 Sienna le. The driver's door seems to be the problematic part of the system. The other doors seem to want to respond but driver door makes a 'click, click, click' sound and doesn't respond. Key usually works to lock and unlock but not consistently. Dangerous since people could be trapped in vehicle during an accident, etc and other possibly dangerous scenarios could occur. Reporting this since it most likely has happened to others and wanted it on record. Driver and others could be trapped inside which is dangerous.

On back door of minivan, the outside handle broke when we squeezed it to open. The door cannot be opened. Why is there no release from the inside? the quote to fix is $275-300. Also, on the rear sliding door (driver side, not an automatic sliding door), the push-button latch "sticks" so the door will not latch when closing; we have to pry the push-button out with a key or screw driver so the door will latch.

I bought a brand new Toyota Sienna ce in April, 1999. From the day 1, the passenger side sliding door is so tight that my teenage kid couldn't open. It is not safe in this way. It finally broke. I called Toyota usa and Toyota Canada (Toyota usa said this vehicle is in Toyota Canada's database, but I bought it at Chicago's Toyota dealer). Both Toyota customer support refused to check and repair it! I believe it is design and manufacture problem.

Sliding door sticks. Cleaned and lubricated door seals and contact surfaces. Door does not appear to be loose or out of adjustment. I am afraid the door handle is going to break off because it takes so much force to open the door.

1999 Sienna passanger side door. When open, if activated by remote or inside the vehical the door will continue to close even if an object is in the path of the closing door. It does not stop and wait or warn you if someone/something is going to be caught in the door. Which has happend to my husband and my self.you have to have someome else reverse the door to let you out of it crushing you.this is not safe. I have small children getting in /out iof this van all day. The remote can be accidentially activated by holding it in your hand or placing iton the seat/floor of the van. This is what happend to us. The remote is hyperscentive my panic button goes off all of teh time just when holding the remote. My husabnd and I recieved large skin and mussle brusing and a few mouments of panic.I don't know what would happen if someone was not around to deactivate the door?

The passenger side power door has been intermittent for some time but usually worked after several attempts. At a car mileage of 77,000 the door opened and would not close. It was closed with great force but lost control and audible warning signals.this created a safety problem with children in the rear seats.

Push button on both side sliding doors sticks in, preventing latching of doors. Have to jimmy out the push button before the door will latch. Lubrication helps temporarily, but the problem worsens during hot days. Service dept. At dealer says that this is due to a problem with the latch assembly. Replacing it, but no guarantee it won't happen again.

Intermittently both manual sliding doors are unable to open from inside. Dealer was notified, and unwilling to assist. Stated that vehicle was out of its warranty, and not covered under a manufactures recall. Manufacturer replaced locks, they paid for locks and consumer paid for labor.
