A big plus was purchasing the extended service warranty. When i purchased my new Toyota limited all-wheel highlander 2019, I thought it was just an extra salesman's gimic but since then, I have used it multiple times with some major repair issues after standard manufacturers limited warranty...with the price of new vehicles these days, unaffordability is becoming more common

The main things that would prevent me from a Sienna.... You cannot remove the second row seats (unless you get out a socket set and unhook the side airbag connectors), which I do frequently in my Odyssey. I don't find the front seat adjustments to be enough. The driver's seat is supposed to be 8-way... but acts more like a 6-way. The passenger seat STILL has no height adjustment, even if on the top $60,000 Platinum trim. Inexcusable. They are purposely limiting production so dealers can rip people off. Toyota knows people will buy them all up, so they don't bother making any improvements.

Add my experience to the chorus on the lack of availability. In stock Siennas are unavailable in Arizona. The dealers that show them in stock don't actually have them on the lot when you call them. Disappointing and deceptive IMHO. We actually had a Toyota dealer ask us if we wanted to test drive a 2021 since that was the only late model Sienna they had.
@PrettyGoodLookinКүн бұрын
Why don't they have any in stock ?
@stevebrittКүн бұрын
@@PrettyGoodLookin I'm going to assume this is a serious question. The demand for Siennas is much more than the supply. At least here in Arizona, almost every Sienna is pre-sold before arriving at the dealer. Since this has been going on for years now, I can only assume it's a conscious decision on Toyota's part to maximize per unit profit.

Dropped Easy Speak this year. Sucks! Anyone who transports third row passengers will attest to the need. Still available with Honda Odyssey, however. At least the new Sienna has a built-in beer cooler and a vacuum not quite as good as the one at the car wash or the one in your garage, but no Easy Speak.

Non-removable middle seats, back seats don't fold flat, non-removable cup holder thing on floor between middle seats (I think), stupid console, ugly grille, no spare tire if AWD. Such a disappointment in usability for a fantastic drive-train with great efficiency.

Sienna owners... what's the noise level like under freeway speed acceleration and/or when loaded with passenges and/or cargo? Other sources suggest that it's unbearable especially in the lower trims.
@scottrok13Ай бұрын
We just completed a 3 hour trip (mostly 70 mph freeway, and some stop and go city traffic). Very happy in our new 2025 Sienna. It takes some getting used to the 4-cylinder when under load (versus our older 2006 sienna 6 cylinder), but the overall design of the vehicle and interior seems wayyyy quieter than the old 2006! Had 5 adults in the vehicle with some gear 850 lbs max, plus 16 gallons of gas). Dealer installed trailer receiver (no ball hitch yet). NOTE: Went up an angled cement driveway from a city street = rear receiver scraped for a second. After dropping off 1 passenger + their gear, = no scraping when reversing back down to the street. Take angles and bumps carefully😢

@scottrok13Ай бұрын
New 2025 Sienna mid-row seats (compared to my old 2006 model) are “not really removable”, so 101 cubit feet now versus the old 149 cubic feet because the new mid-row seat folds into a v-shaped and slides up against the front row seats (old 2006 could detach and take out the mid-row seats). Also, front row console between driver and passenger = prevents super long wood posts being transported inside on the floor with rear hatch closed. Have to lay seats flat and tie down…. So I had the dealer install a trailer receiver so we can add a trailer ball hitch in the future = for ease of transporting bicycles, and or rent a small trailer while helpings kids move to college, etc😢😂

The icebox is awful and that screen is 1998 quality and u could buy an awesome laptop for the price of this and any vacuum for $30 will do the job and u r bound to lose the bits or the connector will break..stupid ideas and overpriced. Plus that new hybrid engine is not nearly as reliable as the old well tested v6.amd far more expensive to fix once the watranty is gone
