Pressed the button to open the rear passenger sliding door and it would open. When opened manually it would open only about 12 inches. Then when we were driving on the highway the door opened on its own. The door had to be manually closed and now it will not open. This is now a safety concern that in the event of a crash passengers may not be able to exit the vehicle or the door could open again while driving.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 toyota sienna. The contact had the sliding doors replaced, but the hinges on the inside of the passenger side sliding door were rusted out. As a result, the door fell off the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for diagnostic testing or repairs due to the sliding door that was detached from the hinge. The contact called sherman toyota 1555 (393 court st, binghamton, ny 13904, 607‑724‑1334) where the contact was advised that the new door hinge would cost to replace.

I was notified my vehicle had a recall on the power doors. I made an appt on 9/20/17 with alamo toyota to have them look at my vehicle and was told they were ordering the parts. I called alamo toyota on 10/10/17 and was told the parts were on back order. I called again on 1/3/18 and was told by 2 individuals that they could not find that the parts were ordered for my vehicle. We are talking 3.5 months later I'm being told the parts for the recall were never ordered. What if something happens to my family, my children who sit in the back? This is unacceptable! I was told they would order the parts as of 1/3/18. I'm still waiting to hear when these parts arrive. In the mean time, I pray nothing happens to my children!

I'm disappointed that alamo toyota in san antonio, tx did not mention or request to fix this recalled part when my vehicle was brought in in september 2017 for the recall on the power doors. Now, several months later I'm dealing with another recall waiting on parts to be ordered when this could have been fixed 4-6 months ago and this whole time myself and my family have been at risk with these recalled parts not being repaired.
