Toyota Sienna Recalls

The Toyota Sienna has 62 recalls spanning 1998 through 2025, with the most serious recent issue being improperly welded second-row seat rails on 2025 Hybrid models that can prevent the seat from holding an occupant in a crash.

On the current generation (2021–2025), a handful of recalls affect occupant protection. Third-row seatback bolts on 2021–2025 Hybrid models may not be tightened properly, which can allow the seatback to give way in a crash. The 2022 model has second-row outboard seat belts with an incorrect D-ring that can cause the belt to bunch and tear in a crash. A passenger seat sensor issue on 2021 models can prevent the front airbag from deploying when needed. On 2021–2022 models, a software fault can deactivate the electronic stability control system without warning. The 2025 model also has a rearview camera that can freeze or go blank when reversing. Certain 2024–2025 vehicles converted for wheelchair access have wheelchair restraint hardware that may not secure the chair properly in a crash, and some 2024 BraunAbility conversions have occupant tie-down pucks that can detach in a crash.

Going back to the 2017–2020 era, the fuel pump on 2017–2020 models can fail and stall the engine while driving. The 2017 model has a brake booster vacuum pump that can suddenly lose its power-assist function. On BraunAbility-converted 2017–2020 vehicles, a steering shaft extension can fracture and cause a complete loss of steering. The 2019 model has a passenger door weld defect that can cause side and curtain airbags to fire unexpectedly or fail to deploy in a crash. A fuel delivery pipe on 2014–2015 models can leak in the engine compartment, raising the risk of fire. BraunAbility and Vantage Mobility conversions from 2014–2019 have brake line fitting issues that can reduce rear braking power. The 2018 model has a specific lot of alloy wheels that can crack at the spokes and separate from the hub.

The 2011–2016 span has several issues worth noting. Power sliding doors on 2011–2016 models can open unexpectedly while the vehicle is moving after being blocked or frozen. The Takata passenger-side airbag inflator, which can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, affects 2011–2014 models, with the highest-risk vehicles being those registered in high-humidity states. On 2015 models, overhead assist grips can detach during curtain airbag deployment and strike occupants. A brake pedal bracket on 2011 models can be damaged when applying the parking brake, reducing braking effectiveness. The 2011 front right driveshaft can break without warning and cause sudden loss of drive power.

The 2004–2010 era carries the heaviest concentration of older recalls. A shift lock defect on 2004–2009 models allows the transmission to be moved out of Park without pressing the brake pedal, risking a rollaway. The 2004 model specifically has multiple issues: a floor mat clip that can trap the accelerator pedal at near-full throttle, a fuel tank vulnerable to leaking in a frontal crash, and a rear liftgate that can drop unexpectedly when the gas struts wear out.
