The dashboard of my Sienna 2004, craking all over (horizontal and vertical). Following the same lines of the design. My minivan has not been in any accident. -this can provoque the air bags inside the dash ican bee loose in any moment and cause an accident. -all the electric wire can be in danger because the dashboard is broken and now is not 1 piece so is not hold to the car 100%.
Due to a failure in the moonroof system in the vehicle (rubber seal and two drains on either side), rain water seeped into the air bag system resulting in mold-build up and serious damange to the vehicle and possible malfunction of the air bags and breathing of dangerous mold/fungi. All the passengers in the vehicle got nauseous in 1-hour journey and the future consequence of such fungi build up and potential failure of the air-bag could be life threatening.
My car was moving at 5 mph going into a parking lot when a high speeding track jumped out of highway, hit my car stright on the right side,the strong impact caved the side door more than one foot,curtain air bags or any air bags in the car,did not deploy. $7000 in damage repair,$6000 in medical bills. Injuries sustained could have been avoided if air bags deployed. Incident was reported to Toyota many months ago,and being ignored.
Cracks started appearing on the dashboard around where the passenger airbag would deploy. I'm concerned that shards of plastic may be ejected toward occupants and injure them if the airbag deploys.

In my 2004 Toyota Sienna xle limited awd, the upper dashboard(by the windshield & front airbags is cracking. I am highly concerned that these cracks will interfere with proper deployment of the front airbags in an accident situation. Also the upper dashboard may break apart in an accident situation and become airborne causing further injury to vehicle passengers. I have contacted Toyota and was told it was only covered for 36,000 miles or 3 years despite the fact it can pose a safety issue. In researching the internet, I found other 2004-2007 Toyota & Lexus owners are having the same issue with the cracked dashboard. . Read more...
Dashboard cracking has become signficantly worse in the last month and there is concern about integrity of dashboard components, including installed airbags which are in dashboard area.
Cracks in the dashboard noted over area where airbags are located.
Cracks along the entire dashboard and airbag areas of the front dash. Concern about proper airbag deployment or failure and lack of stuctural integrity of the dash along with steering control during a vehicle crash. Dash failure and debris from dash may affect the steering control if dash debris is lodged against steering area. Noticed dash cracks at about 60k miles and the cracks continue to grow with each use of vehicle. Currently vehicle has 79k miles. Dealer/manufacturer did not want to fix or replace the dash citing out of warranty issue. However, this issue is on all 04 and up Toyota Sienna's and possibly more vehicles with this type of dashboard material.
I have a 2004 Sienna xle limited that has always been garage kept and very well taken care of. The dash on the passenger side above the airbag has been cracking for sometime now and what once started as a small crack, is now a spiderweb of cracks that extends over the entire passenger side of the dash. .

The dashboard is cracking and splitting and may affect the deployment of the airbags.
Dash is cracking and it has been parked in the garage each night the entire time since we purchased it new. No care or concern from Toyota about the safety of the airbags ability to perform with the dash in this condition. Very displeased with the lack of concern for the welfare of my family and all passengers.
2004 Toyota Sienna developed problems with the brake equipment. ** answer required*** on four occasions, the brakes had been inspected by mechanics and in some cases reinstalled. The consumer also experienced a grinding noise on two different trips. The consumer was informed that the grinding noise was coming from the rear brakes and did not constitute serious brake problems. The consumer tried to use the hitch mount/bike rack only to find that the hitch would bottom out while entering gas stations or exiting driveways. Also, as an alternative to the hitch not operating properly, the consumer added rear air bags on the suspension system in order to give the vehicle additional clearance and they have failed and or blew out about three times. Other problems: battery failure, rear bumper clip not holding the bumper in place, interior trim piece on seat detaching, grab handle trim piece breaking, and the consumer's daughter's hand had gotten stuck in the automatic door that was not supposed to close due to resistance in the path.
