1992 Toyota Previa problems

toyota logo

The Toyota Previa, also known as the Toyota Estima (Japanese: トヨタ・エスティマ, Hepburn: Toyota Esutima) in Japan, and Toyota Tarago in Australia, is a minivan that was produced by Toyota from 1990 until October 2019 across three generations.

The name "Previa" is derived from the Spanish for "preview", as Toyota saw the first Previa as a vehicle that would preview technologies used in future minivans. The Previa was the second largest minivan in Toyota's lineup in Japan after the bigger and more luxurious Alphard/Vellfire.

First generation (XR10/XR20; 1990)

The first generation, designed by Toyota designer Tokuo Fukuichi and Calty designer David Doyle in 1987 (patent filed 24 December 1987), was introduced on 27 January 1990, and had only one sliding side door for the rear passengers. It featured a mid-engined platform, where the inline-four cylinder gasoline-powered engine was installed almost flat (at a 75-degree angle), beneath the front seats.

Installing the engine in this configuration allowed moderately easy access to the spark plugs, which were located underneath a panel on the mid right-side of the vehicle, after removing the front right seat, the carpet and an access panel.

All of the engine-driven accessories, such as the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor and radiator fan, are accessible from the front hood and are driven by an accessory driveshaft on the front of the engine. This method received the name Supplemental Accessory Drive System, or "SADS". Placing these items in front allowed the designers to achieve an even front/rear weight distribution, which benefits ride quality and handling. However, it also prevented the installation of a larger engine, and meant that the design and development costs could not be mitigated by sharing the platform with other vehicles.

The first generation Previa was 4,750 mm (187.0 in) long and 1,800 mm (70.9 in) wide. In Japan, two smaller versions, the Toyota Estima Lucida and Toyota Estima Emina, were produced from January 1992, which were approximately 110 mm (4.3 in) narrower and 70 mm (2.8 in) shorter than the standard model. The original design continued to be sold in Japan, but became known as the "wide-body" Estima.

The reason that the smaller Emina and Lucida models were developed is the vehicle tax system in Japan, which is based on the product of the length and width of the car; the smaller variants fall into a lower tax band. The Estima Emina and Estima Lucida were also available with a 2.2-liter diesel engine (3C-T and 3C-TE). In Japan, the Estima and Estima Emina were exclusive to the dealerships called Toyota Store. The Estima Lucida sold at Toyota Corolla Store dealerships. The two received small redesigns in 1994 and a facelift in 1996.

The first generation Previa was available in both rear- and all-wheel drive versions (called All-Trac) and powered by a 135 PS (99 kW) JIS four-cylinder 2.4-liter fuel injection engine. Available with a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual gearbox, this Previa also seated seven or eight people, with three seating configurations offered (North America only received the seven passenger configurations, however).

All configurations have a driver and front passenger seat forward, and a three-seat bench seat at the rear that splits and folds flat against the sides of the cabin. The eight-seat configuration contains a 2/1 split swiveling bench seat in the middle row, while the seven-seat configurations contain either two independently swiveling captain's chairs (referred to as "Quad Seating"), in the middle row or a two-seat bench offset towards the driver's side. The third row is better upholstered in the seven-seat version.

The Previa was available with either four-wheel disc brakes or traditional front disc/rear drum brake setup, with anti-lock brakes (ABS) as an option.

What is the common problem of Toyota Previa?

A common issue on the Previa is for the arm rests to become loose. When they become very loose, they will not stand up when you try to move them out of the way. Instead they will fall straight back down.

Is Toyota Previa a reliable car?

I have owned 2 Previa's and I put 180,000 miles on the first one and more than 200,000 on the second one which I still drive every day. Both were extremely reliable and other than a battery, brakes, tires and oil changes, you'll never have to worry about anything. I wish they still made them today.

How long can a Toyota Previa last?

It's a great car,very reliable, durable, dependable and are known to last at least 300,000 miles on same tranny and engine.

Why did Toyota discontinue the Previa?

The Previa was considered too small and too underpowered to compete with the much bigger and cheaper Chrysler minivans, and so Toyota stopped selling it in the United States and went to the very competent but basically unoriginal Sienna.

  • Summary: TOYOTA PREVIA. MANUFACTURE DATES BETWEEN 1989 TILL 1993? BUT MY 1992 TOYOTA PREVIA HAS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK KEEPS ON MALFUNCTIONING (WILL NOT OPEN OR OPERATE PROPERLY) UNTIL LATELY (NOW/TODAY), IT WILL NEITHER OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OR FROM THE INSIDE. ALL BECAUSE OF A BAD SPRING THAT IS ATTACHED (NO LONGER) TO THE LOCKING ACTUATOR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN PART OF WHEN THE VEHICLE GETS INTO AN ACCIDENT, EMERGENCY CREW OR THE DRIVERS CANNOT EXIT THE VEHICLE. DRIVERS HAD TO USE THE PASSENGERS DOOR. THIS IS UNSATISFACTORY. IF THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE DUE IN PART TO THE NEGLIGENCE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TOYOTA CORP. THEN WE ARE REALLY IN DIRE STRAITS FOR THIS COUNTRY THAT I LOVE. THANK YOU. *TR

PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2001-07-15
  • VIN: JT3AC22S9N1
  • Components: PARKING BRAKE
  • Summary: ON 7/15/2001 I DROVE MY WIFE'S PREVIA AND NOTICED THAT IT SEEMED TO HAVE AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT OF DRAG WHILE GLIDING WHILE IN "DRIVE" AS IF THE BRAKES WERE SOMEHOW ON, ALTHOUGH NEITHER THE MAIN BRAKES NOR THE PARKING BRAKE WERE ON. ONE DAY LATER, MY TOYOTA DEALER TELLS ME THAT IT WAS A "STICKING PARKING BRAKE" AND THAT IT WOULD COST $490 (!!) TO FIX. A FEW CALLS TO OTHER MI TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS CONFIRMED THAT IT'S NOT AN UNUSUAL PROBLEM AT ALL. SINCE THE PARKING BRAKE DRUM AND SHOE UNIT IS SEPARATE FROM THE REAR DISC BRAKE ROTORS, BUT STILL ENCLOSED FROM THE WEATHER, I HAVE NO IDEA AS TO WHY THIS WOULD BE SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM. THE COST OF $490 IS ABOUT WHAT A FULL DEALER DONE BRAKE JOB WOULD COST IF NONE OF THE ROTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT SEEMS TO ME, AND MANY OTHER CAR OWNERS WERE THEY ASKED, THAT BRAKES CAN WEAR OUT BUT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT TO CAUSE TERMINAL DETERIORATION IN SUCH AN IMPORTANT SYSTEM IS BEYOND COMPREHENSION. A HIGH VOLUME DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THEY DON'T EVER ALLOW THEIR MECHANICS TO TOUCH THE PARKING BRAKES BECAUSE "OF THE COMMON OCCURRENCE OF HAVING THOSE BRAKES SEIZE UP." HOW'S THAT FOR RELIABILITY? (OR IS IT PLAIN LIABILITY?) PLAESE NOTIFY ME IF ANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM OR IF THEY HAVE MERELY PASSIVELY COUGHED UO THE $500 BUCKS AND 'GOTTEN ON WITH IT.*AK

Positive 1992 Toyota Previa car reviews

  1. Eusebio Gleichner 2025-01-01

    I bought this Previa brand new 19 years ago and it has been a reliable companion ever since. It has accompanied us on many trips to our second home in Colorado, which is located at an altitude of 9500 feet. The vehicle has always performed exceptionally well and has great mileage. I have tried to trade it in three times, but the dealers just don't seem to appreciate its true value. My family and I have grown so attached to it that we plan to keep it forever. In fact, my son is already looking forward to inheriting it and using it as his Colorado car. Despite having 180,000 miles on it, it still runs like a dream!

  2. Danial Pacocha 2024-11-28

    We've kept the car in great condition with several upgrades, including a roof rack, new tires, Bluetooth, and speakers. Plus, it comes with SIRIUSXM radio!

  3. Brendan Hilpert 2024-11-09

    Today we went to look at the new Sienna's and decided that while they have some great features, there's just something special about the design of the 91 and later Previas. The back seats fold up and away, making it easy to haul something on a moment's notice without having to figure out what to do with the seats when you take them out. Plus, the middle seats swivel, giving you even more flexibility. If you're interested in learning more about the Previa, there's a great chatroom on Yahoo that potential buyers should definitely check out!

  4. Freeman Lubowitz 2024-10-24

    Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share with you my recent experience with this car. My parents were the original owners and took great care of it, so I decided to buy it from them even though it had 130,000 miles on it. Our first adventure with it was a big move from California to Maryland with our three kids and most of our belongings. Despite being heavily loaded and the suspension being bottomed out for most of the trip, we drove nonstop for 4 days at 75+mph and got an impressive 25 mpg! I'm so happy with how well it performed.

  5. Arnoldo Bahringer 2024-10-22

    Hello! I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share with you that we purchased this car in the spring of 1992 and it has been a reliable companion ever since. It just passed NYS inspection again this past spring (2022) and is still going strong. The engine still runs like new, which is amazing! However, I have been having some trouble finding parts for it, including wiper blades, which is a bit of a concern. Despite this, the car has been virtually maintenance-free, which is a testament to its quality. It has a few minor issues, such as the radio and fuel gauge light being burned out, but it's still fun to drive (5-speed stick) after 30 years! I'm thinking of selling it to someone who is interested in restorations. Let me know if you're interested or know someone who might be. Thank you for your time!
