NHTSA complaint: 2004 TOYOTA SIENNA — STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:SUPPORT DEVICE/STRUT
POWER LIFTGATE NOT SUPPORTED BY THE GAS STRUTS. POWER LIFTGATE OPENS AND THEN BEGINS TO POWER CLOSE, KNOCKING THE PERSON LOADING/UNLOADING THE CAR ON THE HEAD OR SQUEEZING THEM BETWEEN THE LIFTGATE AND THE REAR BUMPER. HAS BUMPED ME, SQUEEZED MY WIFE MULTIPLE TIMES. I FEAR THIS COULD SERIOUSLY INJURE THE KIDS IF THEY EVER FIND THEMSELVES IN THE MOUTH OF THIS HUNGRY MINIVAN! *JB
