| Jul 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | We purchased a used 2025 Toyota Sienna a few weeks ago. The other day, my husband put his phone and wallet into the center console compartment and closed the lid. When we went to retrieve those items, the lid only opened partially. We were finally able to remove the wallet but the phone had slid down into the compartment where the door to that console opening slides into when you open and close it. The lid would not open all of the way and blocked our access to that space when you opened it. The only way to remove the phone was to take it to our local dealership where they spent hours removing seats and pieces of the console to remove the phone from the inaccessible area and then put everything back together. This cost us roughly four hours of work time and $311.99 out of our own pocket. Apparently this is a known issue with this vehicle and is a design flaw where items of the right size (including iPhones) can slide into that compartment while the lid is closed and then are inaccessible. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2026 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Driver-side mirror (glass part only) vibrates while driving, no matter the speed. This causes a distorted rear view — for example, it's hard to read the license plate of a car on your left. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2026 | SEATS | The complaint was filed for the contact's business. The business owns a 2025 Toyota Sienna Hybrid. The business received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V668000 (Seats); however, part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the vehicle had been inoperable since the recall notification was received. The manufacturer was not contacted. The vehicle had not experienced a failure related to the unrepaired recall repair. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2026 | AIR BAGS,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), specifically the airbag system, is the component of concern. During a two-impact collision involving my 2025 Toyota Sienna XLE, none of the airbags deployed despite significant front-end damage that resulted in the vehicle being declared a total loss. The vehicle is currently in the possession of the insurance company or its storage facility. I do not know whether it has been released for salvage, but it may still be available for inspection. I, my wife, and our children were all wearing seatbelts at the time of the collision. After an oncoming vehicle struck the front-left portion of my vehicle while making a left turn, my vehicle lost control and collided with a concrete pillar. None of the airbags deployed during either impact. All occupants sustained injuries and were transported to the emergency department. I suffered injuries to my right leg, wrist, chest, neck and back. My wife sustained injuries to her neck, chest, back, and knee, and our children sustained injuries including head impacts. My wife and I continue to receive physical therapy. The vehicle was declared a total loss following the collision, and no dealer or independent repair facility has evaluated or reproduced the concern. The vehicle was inspected by the responding law enforcement officers at the crash scene, and a police crash report was completed. The insurance company (GEICO and Allstate Fire and Casualty) inspected the vehicle and declared it a total loss. To my knowledge, Toyota has not yet inspected the vehicle, and I do not know whether the Event Data Recorder (EDR) or Supplemental Restraint System has been analyzed. Prior to the collision, I did not observe any airbag warning lights, SRS warning messages, or other indications that there was a problem with the Supplemental Restraint System. The vehicle was operating normally before the crash. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 5 Towed Medical attention | Unknown |
| Jun 2026 | STRUCTURE | My rear lift gate was misaligned and gets stuck. The dealer just fixed and wouldn't honor the warranty, but I believe this shoddy build quality could impact the safety of my family in an accident as it didn't appear the hatch was properly secured | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Card became unattainable after dropping behind the top of the center console. No way to get it out. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2026 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | June 3, 2026, approximately 5:30 PM EDT, I entered my 2025 Toyota Sienna to move it from the street beside my home, to my driveway. Upon closing the driver's door, the rear liftgate window exploded into the vehicle. This occurred without any warning or adverse action by myself or anyone else. The vehicle has been in no collisions, and has only 6429 miles on the odometer. I phoned Toyota's "Customer Experience Center" to report the incident and to seek warranty service for this problem. I was told to drive the vehicle to my Toyota Dealer, which is located 115 miles away, for inspection. I explained that it is unsafe to drive a vehicle filled with broken glass and with no rear window 115 miles. If I vacuum up the glass, there is nothing for the dealership technician to inspect. If I tape plastic over the opening, it could come loose at highway speed, and cause an accident, and the tape adhesive could damage the vehicle finish. The Toyota agent advised me that the vehicle must be inspected at a Toyota Dealership, and if the vehicle is unsafe to drive to the dealer, we could have it towed. But in a subsequent call to the "Customer Experience Center", my wife was informed that Toyota would not cover a tow of that distance in their warranty, and it was our fault for buying a car and taking it to an area that far from a dealer. The phone number we called is located inside the vehicle owner's manual cover under a heading, "If there is not a Toyota dealer near you, please call the following number:" In the morning, once they are open, I will call the nearest dealership, 115 miles distant, to seek further guidance. Based on my background in both mechanical engineering and automotive failure analysis, it is my opinion that the window and its support system was not designed to withstand the prolonged sun and heat exposure experienced. The outside temperature reached at least 82 degrees F where the vehicle was parked. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| May 2026 | SEATS | This has been a recall for over 5 months and my van is still not repaired and my two middle seats are unsafe for my children to be in. Toyota and the dealership say there is no fix, but the car is unsafe in the second row per their recommendation. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2026 | SEATS | On [XXX], I purchased a 2025 Toyota Sienna XLE Hybrid subject to NHTSA Recall 25V668 (Toyota Recall 25TA12 — second-row seat rail suspect welds), publicly announced on 10/07/2025. The selling dealer marketed the vehicle as "Certified Used" on Cars.com for at least 64 days after the recall was announced. The dealer's sales representative also represented the vehicle in writing via SMS as "Gold Certified" with the full Toyota Certified Used Vehicle warranty package on [XXX] — one day before sale. The dealer disclosed the recall only at the closing table on [XXX], after I had relied on the prior representations to negotiate the price, submit a credit application, drive to the dealership, and tender a down payment. Toyota's interim recall guidance prohibits occupation of the second-row seats until remedy is performed. The remedy is currently not available. My [XXX] daughter has [XXX] and uses a wheelchair; second-row sliding-door access is essential for her safe transport. The vehicle has been in dealer storage since 01/08/2026 because it cannot safely transport my family. As of 05/24/2026 — 229 days after the recall was announced — no remedy date is available per the dealer's Service Manager. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Component failure: second-row seat rails (potentially improperly welded per Toyota's recall description). The defect has not been independently inspected; the recall is documented by Toyota and NHTSA. No warning lamps or symptoms appear because the defect manifests only in high-speed collisions.

| May 2026 | SEATS | There is a safety recall on my vehicle with no remedy. It has been 7 months since the recall notification. The dealer provided us with a rental, however it is a different model (Sienna vs 4 Runner). | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2026 | SEAT BELTS | Difficulty in pulling the seats belt on the second row seats when the car is turned off. Child has no wiggle room once it’s fastened and cannot undo seat belt as there’s no room to reach to unbuckle belt. I have to force the seat belt out of booster seat so belt can retract completely. The third row seats had a similar issue but didn’t have to force to out of booster seat for it to work properly. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2026 | SEATS,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The recall on the 2nd row seat welding makes this row unusable per Toyota’s recommendation until they get a remedy. There is no estimated date on when the remedy will be available and Toyota is offering no solution to this. I have 2 small kids, one [XXX] and one [XXX] . I brought home my newborn in this car before the recall notice was sent out. It is our hybrid family vehicle and we cannot use it due to this recall and there is no remedy available for who knows how long. They have no offered me a loaner at the dealership near me plus they likely do not have a Sienna as a loaner because according to them Sienna’s are well sought out.

| May 2026 | SEATS | We were notified by Toyota that it was unsafe to transport our children in the second row seats in November 2025 and the vehicle was under a recall. This puts our children at risk such that we cannot use the vehicle for its intended purpose, namely, transporting our three young children. A letter from NHTSA stated Toyota would have a remedy by 12/6. The manufacturer (Toyota) confirmed this recall. Given that Toyota has not indicated a solution date for this and the problem was discovered in October 2025 I believe the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for our vehicle in a timely manner and would like to officially log a complaint with NHTSA | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2026 | SEATS | I am filing a formal complaint regarding my brand‑new 2025 Toyota Sienna, purchased in February 2025 for nearly $70,000. I am still paying interest on this vehicle, which has failed to perform as promised. From early ownership, the vehicle had issues including multimedia malfunctions and unsafe lane‑change behavior on rough roads. In October 2025, Toyota issued a recall for faulty second‑row seats due to improper welding, creating serious safety concerns. This recall has effectively defeated the purpose of purchasing the vehicle. The Sienna was bought as a seven‑seater, but due to the recall it functions as a four‑seater, making it impractical and unsafe for my family. Daily use now causes: Increased back pain from bending to seat and secure children Children kneeling to access the third row, causing pain and injury risk Risk of dropping a child, slipping in rain/snow/ice, or being struck by passing vehicles when exiting backward Significant difficulty for an elderly parent with back pain Ongoing fear that the recalled seats could fail in an accident and injure occupants I contacted Legends Toyota (Kansas City 66109) and Toyota headquarters. The dealership offered unsuitable replacements, including a smaller vehicle or one recently repaired for other issues. Toyota corporate has provided no meaningful remedy, only loaner vehicles that are not equivalent to what I purchased. I believe this represents serious consumer harm: Toyota collected a large sum for a vehicle that cannot be safely or reasonably used and has failed to resolve a known safety defect while continuing to sell newer models without guarantees. I respectfully request an investigation and a fair remedy, such as a refund or equivalent replacement. Thank you for your attention to this matter. | Crash: No Fire: No Fatalities: 1 | Unknown |
| May 2026 | SEATS | The vehicle is a 2025 Toyota Sienna Hybrid subject to a safety recall related to the rear seating area (third row). We were informed by the manufacturer and dealership that no remedy is currently available and that the vehicle may be unsafe to operate as intended. The concern involves potential safety risks with the rear seating system, which affects safe passenger use, especially for family transportation. As a result, we have limited use of the vehicle and do not transport our children in it due to safety concerns. While the vehicle is still occasionally driven, it cannot be safely used for its intended family purpose. The issue has not been resolved, and we have not received a loaner vehicle or alternative transportation despite multiple attempts through the dealership and manufacturer escalation channels. No repair has been performed, and the issue remains open under recall status. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

The vehicle was taken to the dealer due to safety concerns, and the contact was provided with rental assistance.

| Apr 2026 | SEATS | No specific incident occurred. This recall has been active for almost 7 months. I am uncomfortable putting my newborn in the middle rows of seats that are affected and my wife has a medical condition where putting our newborn in the back row is difficult. We are only using our other vehicle at this time until the recall is fixed. 7 months without remedy is unacceptable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | SEATS | Due to safety recall 25TA12 anyone sitting in the second row has an increased risk of injury during a collision. This remedy has taken far too long to implement. The reason for the purchase included passenger capacity and safety. My use is now limited. Toyota should have already remedied this situation. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
