2017 Toyota Sienna

on July 3rd, traveling on highway to airport tire blew out (right rear). Pulled to side of road and attempted assistance but this was friday afternoon before july 4th holiday, NOTHING was going to happen except a tow - possible wait as long as 2-3 hours. reportedly the Sienna has drive flat (50 miles at 50 mph) We drove 5 mph for approx 3 to 4 miles to tire store/Les Schwab. Flat was replaced but then on inspection ALL remaining tires had card showing wear on inner tires. ALL 4 (including the blowout). Pictures submitted . Of particular concern is that we had taken the vehicle about 10 K prior (March)specifically for tire wobble noise and to fix alignment. Wear was noted, but no safety concerns raised and no cautionary recommendations offered. When we brought the vehicle and tires to the dealer AFTER the blowout we were told by service manager that the early wear was a known problem to occur specifically on the all wheel Siennas. Again, NO CAUTIONARY ADVICE GIVEN in March despite recognized wear and this known history. We had a blowout in heavy holiday traffic at 60 mph less than 10K /3month later. This easily could have been catastrophic. We reported to Toyota to a "Beth" at customer documentation and risk reduction department who did an excellent job of deflecting causation/potential blame and advised us to contact the tire manufacturer or the dealer. Absolutely no evidence of concern for safety - ours or those around us - at highway speeds. Review of web shows known problem, service manager volunteered it to be a known problem of premature wear, with service given shortly before incident WITHOUT GUIDANCE. "Beth" told us she would document our concerns but that there was nothing Toyota could do or would do other than documenting. I am hopeful you can investigate further and initiate some reparative process before there is a preventable catastrophe much like the Prius accelerator problem. we will send copies of to wherever is useful

THE BRIDGESTONE RUN FLAT TYRES ON MY TOYOTA SIENNA 2017 AWD HAS WORN OUT IN 24,000 MILES. THESE ARE THE FACTORY TYRES AND WHEN THE DEALER SOLD THE CAR TO US, THEY SAID IT COMES WITH WARRANTY . BUT IT SEEMS THAT IS NOT THE CASE. KINDLY HELP. THESE TYRES ARE EXPENSIVE AND IF I HAVE TO CHANGE IT AROUND 20,000 MILES, ITS TOO MUCH. ALL WE USE THE CAR IS TO DROP OFF KIDS TO SCHOOL AND THEIR SPORTING EVENTS. WE NEVER TOOK THE VAN IN BAD ROADS. *TR

SINCE 2004 TOYOTA HAS KNOWN THAT SIENNA AWD DAMAGE RUN-FLAT-TIRES (RFT) RAPIDLY AND NEVER REACH OR CLOSE TO 60,000 MILES OF THE LIFE OF TIRES WARRANTY. TOYOTA SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM THEN OR WARN THEIR CUSTOMER BEFORE THE PURCHASING (SEE THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT OF A CLASS ACTION). I PURCHASED SIENNA VAN AWD FROM L&S DEALER IN BECKLEY WV, THE SALESMAN NEVER TOLD ME ABOUT THE TIRES PROBLEM WILL BE WORN OUT COMPLETED WITHIN 30,000 MILES, BUT STATE THAT 60,000 MILES INCLUDED TIRES FOR ALL POWER TRAINED AFTER I NOTICED THAT THE VAN DO NOT HAVE SPARE TIRE. WHEN I BROUGHT VAN FOR TIRES WARRANTY FROM FIRESTONE CORPORATE SERVICE CENTER AND THEY TOLD ME THE SIENNA IS TOO HEAVY TO USE THIS TIRES. I HAVE TO PAY THE PARTIAL USAGE OF 60,000 MILES WARRANTY. THE BIG PROBLEM IS THE TIRES OF MY VAN CUPPED AND MAKING ROAMING NOISE WHEN ONLY 10,000 MILES WHICH MAKE DRIVING VERY UNCOMFORTABLE, DEFEATED THE PURPOSE WHAT I PAID FOR. THIS IS ABNORMAL FOR VAN OR ANY CAR THAT DAMAGES THE TIRES SO BADLY. THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THE VAN ACTS JERKING SOME TIMES WHEN I CHANGE LANE IN HIGHWAY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. AT 29,000 MILES TOYOTA AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER TOLD ME THE TIRES CUPPED BADLY TO STEEL BELT, AFTER PARKED THE VAN FOR 1 MONTH I DECIDED TO PAY TO REPLACE TIRES (SEE ATTACHED PICTURE FOR THE CUPPED TIRES). I WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES -- REPAIR OR REPLACE THE EQUAL VALUE VAN BUT NOT AWD.

2017 SIENNA - 16886 MILES. FIRESTONE TIRES STARTED WEARING THIN AT 16,462 MILES. WAS TOLD TOYOTA DOES NOT HANDLE THAT. CALLED FIRESTONE AND WAS TOLD TO GO TO CORPORATE STORE. WAS TOLD AT FIRESTONE STORE TIRES WERE AT 5/32 AND NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE TIRES WERE NOT AT 4/32. CONCERNED BECAUSE FAMILY CAR, TIRES SHOULD NOT START TO WEAR AT LESS THAN 17,000 MILES. AT 16,886 MILES WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE CITY ROAD AT 40 MPH, 2 FIRESTONE TIRES BLEW OUT. MY CONCERN IS MORE TIRES ARE ON ROAD AND THERE HAS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THAT BATCH OF TIRES. FIRESTONE STILL WILL NOT SAY THEY ARE IN WRONG.

WE ARE EXPERIENCING EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR ON OUTER EDGES. NOTHING WAS MENTIONED ABOUT UNEVEN TIRE WEAR UNTIL 10K MILES MARK. TIRES WERE ROTATED EVERY 5K. HAD TO PAY AND PERFORM ALL WHEEL ALIGNMENT AT 10K. FEW WEEKS AGO, I AM NOT ABLE TO GET REPAIR SHOPS TO REPAIR A PUNCTURED NAIL ON ONE OF THE TIRES BECAUSE THEY DEEM UNSAFE TO REPAIR A TIRE WORN OUTER AGE. THE VAN NOW HAS 19K MILES AND I AM LOOKING TO GET NEW SET OF TIRES.

I BOUGHT NEW 2017 TOYOTA SIENNA AWD XLE. I NOTICED IN FIRST MONTH THAT STEERING WHEEL STARTED PULLING LEFT. TOOK THE VAN FOR ALIGNMENT BUT NEVER GOT FIXED. NOW I HAVE 25000 MILES TIRES ROTATION DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MY TIRES ARE MORE WEARING INSIDE THAN OUTSIDE. AND IT'S NOT SAFE ON THE ROADS. I HAVE 4 KIDS THAT WE USE THIS VAN FOR DAILY TRANSPORTATION. I DON'T FEEL SAFE ON THE ROAD WITH MYSELF AND MY FAMILY.

I PURCHASED MY 2017 TOYOTA SIENNA WITH LESS THAN 10 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE EVERY 5K MILES. CURRENTLY, MY CAR HAS 26, 892 MILES AND I JUST HAPPEN TO LOOK AT THE TIRES AND ALL 4 TIRES WERE WEAR OUT ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE. I WAS ADVISED BY A TIRES SHOP THAT IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACE SOON. THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA SIENNA AND THE MGF ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. MY ALIGNMENT CHECK OUT TO BE OKAY. I EXPECTED THE TIRES TO LAST MUCH LONGER. PLEASE ADVISE
