Toyota Sienna problems

The Toyota Sienna is a minivan manufactured and marketed by Toyota primarily for the North American market. It is named for the Italian city of Siena, in the region of Tuscany. It replaced the first generation Previa van in 1997 with a more conventional front-wheel drive layout and shares a heavily revised platform with the Camry. Both the Previa and original Sienna were smaller than the other minivans they competed against, but a redesign in 2003 (for the 2004 model year) increased the dimensions to match those of its competitors.
It was redesigned again in 2010 (for the 2011 model year). The third generation Sienna went on sale in the United States in February 2010 and is the first Sienna to ever receive a "Top Safety Pick" award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. A 2020 redesign (for the 2021 model year) saw the Sienna becoming a hybrid vehicle for its fourth generation. While previous generations of the Sienna were exported to select Asian and European markets, the fourth generation is the first to be produced outside of the United States as Chinese production commenced in July 2021 by two Toyota joint ventures. In China, it is also marketed as the Toyota Granvia.
Following the discontinuation of General Motors's all-wheel drive minivans in 2006, the Sienna was the only minivan in its class offered with AWD in North America until the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica was introduced with an AWD option in 2020.
The Sienna is not available in Japan and Australia as it is not produced in a right-hand drive configuration, and the segment in these countries is already occupied by the Alphard/Vellfire and the HiAce/Granvia respectively.
As of the fourth generation, introduced in 2020, the Sienna is now built on Toyota's TNGA-K platform, which it shares with most of Toyota’s other large MPVs and crossovers.

Common Toyota Sienna problems
The Toyota Sienna is known for its solid reliability, earning a 4.0 out of 5.0 rating from RepairPal, placing it 8th out of 32 segment competitors. However, there are some common issues that potential buyers should be aware of.
One common problem is a loss of engine power, particularly in the 2007 model. Owners of this model have reported experiencing a loss of power when slowing down, sometimes accompanied by transmission problems like jerking and slipping. Unfortunately, the root cause of this issue remains undetermined.
Another common issue is cracking on the dashboard surface. This problem has been reported by owners of various Sienna models, including the 2006 model, where it was one of the most common problems reported.
Transmission failure is also a relatively common problem in older Siennas, with many reports of this issue occurring around 78,000 miles. The symptoms include the vehicle's RPM increasing without a corresponding increase in speed.
Power door issues are another safety concern for Sienna owners. The door's cable may become damaged, causing the power door to stop working. This issue poses a considerable safety risk, especially for rear passengers who may need to force the door open manually.
The 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2011 Toyota Sienna models are best avoided due to multiple complaints from several owners and a history of significant manufacturing defects. These defects include body/paint problems, brake problems, steering problems, exterior accessory problems, and engine problems.
On the other hand, the 1998 to 2003 Toyota Sienna models are generally safer to buy used, as they recorded few problems. The first generation of the Sienna, which ran from 1998 to 2003, had few issues related to the engine, brakes, and body/paint.
In summary, while the Toyota Sienna is generally a reliable vehicle, potential buyers should be aware of these common issues, particularly in certain model years.

- Summary: At the begining of 2024, I received a recall letter from Toyota regarding the airbag malfunction. I was told to wait for a remedy by Q3 of 2024. I patiently waited and was very anxious driving my vehicle. I recently did talk to my local dealer during my maintenance and they stated that they do not have any information regarding that and that I should call Toyota. I tried calling Toyota and was instructed to wait as they still have not got a remedy and that if I was getting in any accidents Toyota will be fully responsible. I bought the car to drive for my safety an this is the level of safety that I am getting. Thus I am here looking for help on how I can get this matter resolved as driving knowing that airbag has failed on the passenger side is very unsafe.

Vehicle year: 2006
A relay caused the computer to malfunction at 495,900 miles, but the engine and transmission were still running smoothly with only a few minor issues. I made sure to perform regular maintenance, such as timing belt changes, and switched to Mobile 1 oil with 10,000 mile oil changes. I also did two complete transmission flushes and added a second in-line transmission filter, which helped prevent any transmission problems. Although I had some minor issues with the bumper clips and slider door handles, I still love my Sienna. One thing that most Sienna owners may not know is that the door posts behind the driver and passenger doors have a strong steel bar, which saved the lives of my cousin and her daughter when they were T-boned by a dump truck. I highly recommend upgrading the front rotors and adding ceramic disk brakes for better stopping power. Now, I'm back to driving my young 1999 Sienna (only 249,000 miles) using the same procedure.

Congratulations on passing the 200,000 mile milestone! It's impressive that you were able to move all of your daughter's dorm stuff home in one trip with 5 passengers, including yourself. Your minivan sounds like a versatile and efficient vehicle with great cargo carrying ability. Although the run flats on the AWD model can be expensive to replace, they provide peace of mind. Overall, it sounds like a great all-purpose vehicle! I love that you pretend it's a crossover!

I really enjoyed reading your review! It's great to hear that you took the time to test drive and rent the SE before making your purchase. As a musician, I can imagine how important it is to have a comfortable and spacious vehicle for transporting your grandkids. The XLE sounds like a great choice with its blind spot monitoring and leather. It's wonderful to hear that you haven't experienced any problems with the transmission and that you're getting good gas mileage. It's also great to hear that you've had positive experiences with the nav system and that you find the van comfortable for long trips with a large group. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us!

If you're looking for a dependable minivan with advanced safety features, the Sienna XLE Premium is a great choice. Keep in mind that it doesn't come with a DVD player or GPS, but if you don't need those features, this is the perfect minivan for you. If you live in a rainy region, consider getting all-weather rubber floor mats to keep your interior clean. Also, please note that the roof racks don't come with cross bars. Lastly, we recommend against purchasing an extended warranty to save you money.

Yes, it's a mini van, but to me, it feels more like a mobile living room. I love the space, and the power is more than adequate. The ride is smooth and comfortable. Overall, I wish I had purchased it sooner. It's as smooth as a boat for the concrete jungle...
Ward Ernser 2025-10-21
Vehicle year: 2005
I've had my Sienna for over 4 years now and it has clocked only 120,000 kms. Unfortunately, both front and rear bearings have worn out and it has been quite expensive to replace them along with the hubs. Despite my requests, Toyota has not been able to provide any help so far. However, they did replace the tires under recall. It seems that all Toyota AWD vans have issues with tires wearing out quickly. We had a similar problem with our AWD Previa. Additionally, I had to spend over $400.00 to replace a power window that fell off track. This van is quite expensive to buy and maintain, with most parts only available through the dealer. Even though I paid over $45,000 in taxes, I am still forking out thousands to keep it on the road after only 4 years.
Eduardo Hilpert 2025-10-20

The exterior construction of the Sienna leaves much to be desired, particularly the door handles which have broken off on three separate occasions. This is a clear design flaw that must be addressed.
Allen Marquardt 2025-10-19
Vehicle year: 2006
This vehicle has been a disappointment. Despite having less than 70k miles, I have already had to replace the tires three times. Additionally, the rear door hold opens have failed, costing nearly $300, and now the A/C compressor is out, with a new part costing over $1,000. The transmission has always shifted sluggishly and the fuel tank is too small for the fuel economy of this vehicle. While I am frustrated with these issues, I am confident in my assessment of the car's performance and will be seeking a resolution to these problems.
Chris Osinski 2025-10-18
Vehicle year: 2008
I would like to share some information with you about the all-wheel drive feature. While it is a great addition to any vehicle, it is important to consider the type of tires that come with it. The run-flat tires that are commonly used with AWD vehicles have a shorter lifespan of about 10-20k miles and can be quite expensive to replace. Additionally, they may not be readily available at all tire dealerships. It is important to keep this in mind, especially when travelling long distances. The AWD mechanism also takes up the space where the spare tire would be located, hence the use of run-flat tires. It is worth noting that this van averages only 17 miles per gallon. Overall, it is a well-built vehicle, but it is important to consider the cost and maintenance of the tires, which can wear out quickly even with regular rotations.
Jessie Koepp 2025-10-18

Great looking van. Reliable and well constructed. However, it may not be the best fit for tall drivers as leg room can be quite cramped, even with power seats. This can make long trips uncomfortable.
