2003 Toyota Sienna CE review from North America
"Not a good vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had trouble with both of the sliding doors (non-power operated ones) as the button you push from the inside to open the doors sticks making them useless. Now I have to carry a bottle of WD-40 with me when I have passengers.
The check engine light has also come on a couple times and the key no longer works to open the hatch.
Considering the van has only been dealer serviced and has such low mileage it's been a very poor vehicle indeed.
General comments?
Overall, I am disappointed with the van. In my opinion Toyota has begun to use poor quality parts.
