Van purchased new October 2024. On two separate occasions, one in late 2024 and next today, [XXX], when pulling into street from a stop, there is no throttle response. You push the accelerator at varying pressure and no response for 2-3 seconds. This is a severe safety issue as it could cause an accident with oncoming traffic. No error lights illuminated on dash. Have seen other complaints on NHTSA website and social media as well. Will take to dealer but reporting a major safety issue.

2024 - Toyota Sienna Woodland Edition - Purchased Oct 3, 2024. When you park the vehicle and put the vehicle in Park, the vehicle thinks that it is park. However, when you come back and start the vehicle, the vehicle again things it is in park, HOWEVER, you are not able to open the power side doors or the rear tailgate using the overhead open button, or using the remote. The vehicle thinks that it is in gear.

Driver side outside rear view mirror shakes and makes driver nauseous. Mirror was replaced in December and replacement mirror shakes as well. Right side (passenger) doesn't shake. Vehicle now has 6500 miles on it. Original equipment windshield has a wavy appearance for the right 1/3 of it (in front of the front passenger seat). Both issues have been brought up with Mitchell Toyota in San Angelo, TX. The dealer will not replace the driver side mirror again, saying "some movement is allowable", even though the passenger mirror doesn't do it at all. They also said that the windshield waviness is "normal". These issues are in addition to other issues I've had with this Sienna, from moldly HVAC smell that caused my eyes to sting and tear up last week.

When I open the Entertainment in my seinna car it's completely blocking the rearview mirror and this is family car and I have a kids they are using the screen all the time.

Hello, leader. I bought my car (Sena Platinum Edition) for three months. Due to a mistake in the appearance, I need to replace the engine now. My new car will definitely depreciate if the engine is replaced, so I hope Toyota headquarters can refund me in full. I need to buy a new Sena! My house is full of Toyota cars, no matter what the result of Toyota Company's handling? I will still choose to buy a Toyota! Thank you!

When coming to a stop at a red light or a stop sign vehicle keeps surging forward. Something in the vehicle is releasing the brakes. Seems to be happening on a regular basis, but is still randomly happening, Every day. If you’re close enough to the vehicle in front of you, you will hit the vehicle

I was driving the speed limit on a sunny day and heard a loud pop and glass breaking which was my sunroof exploding. There is no damage to my roof to indicate anything hit my vehicle.

We had a complete tire blowout of the rear driver tire in the desert, the temperature was 108° ambient. Toyota did not mention to us nor did the dealership that the car does not have a spare tire. We were 50 miles from any service Including cell service, I had to walk a mile to find cell service meanwhile two of our kids experience heat exhaustion. It took four hours to get the Vehicle towed. In that time our children experience heat exhaustion and had to be taken to the hospital. This is a huge oversight part to not make the customer aware that the vehicle especially family vehicle does not have safety equipment like a spare tire. In the desert this is a life and death issue that was not addressed by the dealership nor Toyota. All that is given is an inflation kit. We were not told by the dealership that a card did not come with What turns out to be essential equipment in the middle of a desert.

When crossing a one-way road with oncoming traffic from the left, a vehicle that has recently passed might be triggering the forward collision avoidance system which cuts off throttle control to the Sienna, even when the passed vehicle is well out of the way. It is unknown if the collision avoidance feature is being triggered as there are no warning lights or messages in the display. This results in the Sienna having no accelerator response and sitting “dead in traffic” sideways in front of oncoming cars. This this is the second time this issue has occurred and today I was nearly t-boned by on-coming vehicles as there was no throttle response to move the car forward. This issue has been reported in 4th generation Sienna (‘21-‘24) forums on Facebook. This issue puts at risk vehicle occupants as well as other vehicles on the road.

The 3rd row seats do not remain stowed when passing over a speed bump or dip in the road. Depending upon the speed of the vehicle, the seats might jump up several inches and almost return to the fully stowed position with a loud thud. The seats then bounce up a few inches from the fully stowed position and remain unsecured. It's possible that the seats might unexpectedly fully open at higher speeds.

My child [XXX] ) engaged the automatic locking retractor (ALR) and as it wound back in it wrapped around his neck. By the time we got to him it was tight enough that it was difficult to move or rotate or slide the seatbelt over his head, and we ultimately cut the seatbelt to free him. In addition to the actual safety incident, I was very surprised to learn that this was even possible. I had never heard of this safety issue, and had absolutely no game plan or awareness about this issue. I saw the SBIR program addressing innovation in ALR systems which is exciting! However I would also strongly encourage some sort of awareness campaign or warning messaging to raise awareness and ensure parents keep belt cutters in their cars. Thanks for your time and considering our incident for future regulation, innovation, and awareness campaigns!

Sunroof exploded out of nowhere. Extremely loud. Sounded like a gunshot.

Rear foldable seats do not lock down into compartment. They bounce up when you stop just a little hard. Cable has already broken when this occurs. Anything laid on top of these seats when folded will be ejected inside of car. Hitting driver in the head. This is very dangerous. Already brought to dealer and complained and nothing was done. They said that's the way it is. Someone will die if this problem is not taken care of.

I was at a complete stop. There were no obstacles around me or oncoming. When I pressed the accelerator nothing happened for a full 3 seconds, until my vehicle jolted forward at an excessive speed. Brakes were not working.

Excessive heat coming from all vents and under steering wheel after long time driving. I am very concerned that the vehicle may be caught on fire and then cause injuries or casualties.

Vehicle was driving on a slow traffic local street at roughly 10MPH. Spacing between car in front of me was around 30 ft. I was gliding towards front and ready to brake. Suddenly the vehicle start to accelerate hard by itself without driver’s operation. I tried to engage brake / gas pedal and was not helping. Front collision system did not activate like it suppose to. I ended up turn sharp right towards road curb and hit pole at average speed of 30mph or less. No air bag deployed. I then switch to Park. No warning lights pop up. All safety features on vehicles were turned on before the incident. Whats weird is the car is functioning normal now after incident. I contacted Toyota USA and waiting for feedback.
