Re: toyota sienna power door problems

We hit the power off switch on the door and opened it manually, then closed it manually (with a little difficulty). When we got back home, I could not get the door open manually even with considerable force. I took the van to the dealership & they want $1200 to fix the door latch and motor assembly. They are calling it "normal wear and tear".

Anyone else have a similar experience? I think this may be a potentially unsafe defect and I know there is a service bulletin for this problem. Any suggestions on how to get Toyota to help with the repair?

We are having the same problem. The dealer said it will cost over $3,000 to fix. Help! Any suggestions?!?!?
