Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: About a week ago, the rear lift-gate on my 2005 toyota sienna minivan (xle) started to drop down unexpectedly after being opened. if pushed, the lift-gate would go up, only to drop down again. a few days later, while i was unloading items from the back, the lift-gate started to close automatically and would not go up when i pushed it. i had to escape under the lift-gate or else i would have been crushed between the lift-gate and the car. now, the lift-gate opens and then automatically closes; it doesn't stay open. i cannot use it - it is too dangerous.
