After arriving home with my 2 kids yesterday, we were getting out of the vehicle (2011 Toyota Sienna xle)- my 2 1/2yr old daughter was getting out of the passenger side power door while I was about to get my 3 month old son out of the driver side power door. My 2 1/2yr old daughter pushed the power door button to close her door after getting out of the vehicle and was holding onto the van to gain her ground, at which time the power sliding door closed entirely on her right hand! it did not open with the door sensor as we were told it would do if anything was in the path of the door closing. When I frantically tried to pull open the door from the inside, and push the power door button, the door would not open and she just kept screaming from the other side. I had to put the keys back in the ignition just to open the door and free my daughter! it was a prolonged, scary and traumatizing ordeal that I hope no one else ever has to experience! when you are told the power doors and windows are on a sensor they need to actually function 100%, not only for a large object like a body obstructing the door/window, but also childrens hands- after all this is a family vehicle that I was under the inpression was built on safety!.

The dealership was now ready to make the repairs.
On the morning of oct. 27, my wife drove the car to mid town, manhatton. She drove the car from a car park at 43 street. Suddenly she heard a slight sound and the car lost gear and slided to the middle of the street and dead off. She pressed the gas pedal, no reaction. She used bra and steering suddenly stopped working. That is a busy street, a car almost hit her. She put the car back to parking and restarted the car and drove away. She thought that happened because she forgot to start. ( she forgot she drove 10 feet from the car park). That was a busy day, she forgot telling me. On the afternoon of the same day. I drove the car to boston to see an customer. On the way back, I found there was a strange sound whenever I pressed the gas pedal it sounds like an old shabby car driven over 10 years. I stopped on the shouder and checked the tires and I could not found anything. I drove back to the high way I-91 south again, suddenly, I heard and strange sound, the car lost gear again, it became slowly and slowly. I pressed the gas peddle hardly and that was no use. I pressed the emmergency lights and change to the slow lane. A truck behind me reached me fast. My car forced his truck passed me over the shoulder because there happened to be a car in the middle lane. I was shocked to death. Without the truck driver's alert and skillful changing lane, I would definately a dead man. I stopped on the shoulder and tried all dears, none of them was working. I restarted the engineand no use. I called the aaa tow truck and I was towed back to fort lee new jersey at 2:30 in the morning. Before this incidence, the left rear strut was leaking, they changed the left rear shock and we did a tune up and rotate and balance 10/01/2000. Both me and my wife risked our lives for Toyota's deffects cars. I would not want to risk my family lives to this car again. I strongly require Toyota recalls this car. I would rather buy an american car. If they do not allow us to return, change a new car.
