Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Failure of rear liftgate strut causing liftgate to immediately close we have a 2005 toyota sienna with a power rear liftgate. when only one strut failed, as soon as the door was opened, it no longer had enough pressure to keep the door open. as the the door began to fall, the power closing mechanism began to pull it closed. in otherwords, as soon as the door was opened, it began to automatically close. fortunately there were no injuries--it just gave us a scare. to correct this failure, the dealer is replacing the struts so that the door will remain up when opened. |
