1998 Toyota Sienna CE review from North America
"Reliable, powerful, uncomfortable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter died around 125,000 miles per receipts in glove box.
Screw holding rear window came loose around 149,000 miles.
O2 sensor failed around 180,000 miles.
Drivers seat has felt crooked and uncomfortable since I got it.
General comments?
I really have had little to complain about with this car. I am more than happy with the acceleration and reliability, I just wish the drivers seat was more comfortable.
At 196,000 miles it still runs and drives great, and I am now towing a 2,000lb boat with it. I'm surprised to see all the negatives.
