Engine Funny Noise Problems of Toyota Sienna

I was driving back from this weekend on a highway and I noticed a thumping noise coming from the front of the vehicle and then I noticed an engine light came on and instinctively I knew that was a bad sign for all six of us my family and friends. So I immediately exited the nearest exit ramp and that's when the engine stalled and I couldn't move any longer. We called our insurance company for towing and the cops to steer clear of oncoming traffic since we're on the second lane on the exit ramp. I thank god that nothing happened to us but it shouldn't happen to my vehicle with only 93,000 miles with regular maintenance and a clean driving record.

Subject: smoke from new 2010 Toyota Sienna ce. I bought what appeared to be a new 2010 Toyota Sienna from dch brunswick Toyota in north brunswick, new jersey on March 29, 2010. Its odometer read 95 miles. We left the dealership at about 7:00 pm. My wife drove the car and my mother, who is suffering from sciatica and has recently undergone an operation, sat in the passenger seat. (it must be mentioned here that both my wife and mother have extensive experience in driving cars that goes back at least ten years, and my wife especially is quite familiar with the basics of car mechanics. ) at about 7:30 pm, when my wife turned the heater on, the engine started making loud thumping sounds. My mother noticed a glow in the hood. A considerable amount of thick dark smoke started rising from the hood. My wife stopped the car immediately and turned the engine off. Thinking that the engine was about to explode, they leaped out of the car and ran away to a safe distance in the mud on the side of the street fearing for their lives. The physical and emotional trauma that my mother was subjected to has caused a substantial increase in the back pain leading to nightmares and insomnia. The smoke that the car continued to emit for another half an hour gave the impression that the engine could explode any time. We called the dealership and they had to tow the car back to their place. The dealerships service center tried to diagnose the problem. The best they came up with was: a possible air bubble in the coolant and thermostat failure. But it could be anything else, they added.

My brand new Toyota Sienna has produced hum noise at around 2500 rpm as soon as I pickup the new van. I have the dealer and the regional reps looked at and they found the noise and they also told me that all the Toyota with the same engine have the same problem. I was told they will not fix it. I filed multiple complaints with Toyota but received the same result! I like to know if you can do anything about it. Thanks! *updated 12/12/07 updated 12/12/07.
