Our 2011 Toyota Sienna stalled and the dealer couldn't find out why
We bought our 2011 Toyota Sienna back in December and had been happy with it until last week. It stalled when my husband stopped at the ATM to get cash last Thursday. The van stalled again several times when he was stuck in traffic. He then drove the van straight to the dealer where we bought it. Initially, the dealer thought it was the computer but then after checking the computer, it wasn't the problem. The dealer couldn’t figure out the problem so it contacted Toyota. Toyota suggested to replace the fuel pump. Today the technician called and notified that the fuel pump was replaced, but the problem remains unsolved. So now the dealer has to work with Toyota again to see how to get it fix. The good thing is the dealer gave us a rental car (a nissan altima), the bad thing is we do not like it. We bought the van for reason (kids!). Any Sienna owner ran into this problem? We hope Toyota will have an answer soon, or this could be the last one we will purchase from Toyota.

I also had door problem with my left side power door.
After you pull the handle and release the door would open automatically
if the locks aren't on.. When I pulled this particular door handle it would stop and beep several times almost 2 inches away then freeze..
I would have to wrestle it back to close position then it would normalize.
This occurence would be random..
I brought it back to Parkway Toyota dealer and they couldn't verify this and was turning me away, so I was successful at showing them the problem
and they called California but couldn't figure out the solution..
I then brought it to Toyota dealer in Springfield and they couldn't verify the problem so hence no solution..I am trying to see if there are more occurences like this out there and how to proceed.
It also is excessively noisy, with waves of noise from the front end, as if it were in a very gusty crosswind.
We have not yet taken these problems up with the dealer.
With a new fuel pump you should have a clean slate and hopefully nothing to worry about.
Please let me know if any one has the same problem.
