2012 Amerivan Toyota Sienna

VEHICLE HAS BEEN GIVING A LOUD NOISE FROM THE REAR OF IT. WE HAVE HAD THIS NOISE FOR SOME TIME NOW AND AT 90K THE BEARING ARE BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS NOISE AND NOW BEARING(S) COMPONENT IS RESULTING IN WEARING OF TIRES THAT WE ONLY PURCHASED LAST YEAR. NO ONE IS WARRANTYING THEM SO IT ANOTHER OUT OF POCKET COST. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED UP TO DATE WITH NO WARNING OF THIS ISSUE. THIS BECOMES A SAFETY AND FINANCIAL CONCERN IN THAT, ONCE THE BEARING BECOMES TOO HOT THEY CAN FREEZE UP AND MOBILITY IS NO LONGER. THE IMPORTANT TAKE AWAY IS THAT TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT THIS AND HAS NOT COMMUNICATED TO THE DEALERSHIPS ABOUT CHANGING THE CHAMBERS WHEN THE BEARINGS ARE REPLACED TO PREVENT AND EVEN STOP THIS TYPE OF FINANCIAL EXPENSE ON NEW WHEELS AND BEARING EACH YEAR. THIS IS NOT A SOMETHING THAT AS A CUSTOMER WE SHOULD BE PAYING FOR, TOYOTA SHOULD BE FITTING THE BILL FOR THIS ENTIRE REPAIR AND SAFETY OCCURRENCE.

CAR ACCELERATION. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME IN THE CAR. ONCE ABOUT SIX MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR. AUGUST OF 2015 AND DECEMBER OF 2015. I AM AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE LAST TWO TIMES AT A CORNER WAITING TO MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN. FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATES. MAKING A HORRIBLE REVVING NOISE. I AM PRESSING MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE BRAKE AND IT'S STILL MOVING. THE CAR THEN IS HEADING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BUT THANK GOODNESS, NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT. IT THEN JERKS AND STOPS. FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT 8 AM IN THE MORNING AND THE CAR HAD JUST BEEN STARTED. THE LAST TWO TIMES IT WAS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON, AUGUST ABOUT 4 PM AND DECEMBER ABOUT 3 PM. NICE WEATHER AND THE CAR HAD BEEN RUNNING OVER 20 MINUTES AT THAT POINT. CAR WAS NOT COLD AND IT WAS NICE OUTSIDE. I DID NOT THINK ABOUT IT THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPEN. AUGUST I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS MY FAULT AND THE CAR SHOWED I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDDLE AT THE SAME TIME. NO, I DID NOT. BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. ONE FAMILY MEMBER HAS BEEN IN THE CAR WITH ME ALL THREE TIMES. IT HAS HAPPEN TO A FRIEND OF MINE AND SHE RECALLED THE SAME EXPERIENCE, BUT HER CAR DID GO OUT FARTHER THEN MINE AND HAD DAMAGE. I AM NOT WAITING FOR THAT TO HAPPEN TO ME. IT IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE NOT KNOWING IF THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAVE NO PAPERWORK FROM DEALERSHIP.

MY TOYOYA SIENNA 2012 WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR AFTER THE BRAKE ABS WARNING LIGHTS, VSC WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED. MY VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY WITH FIDELITY INSURANCE THAT I PURCHASED FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE A DIAGNOSIS FEE. THE SAD PART IS THE DEALERSHIP OR MECHANICS HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE AND KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT IS. I AM NO MECHANIC, BUT I AM EDUCATED ENOUGH TO KNOW IT ELECTRICAL FAILURE WITH THE ABS SYSTEM, BECAUSE MY BRAKES WERE INSPECTED AND PASSED.
