I pulled into a parking space in the normal way. My foot was on the brake and the car was stopped. I was preparing to shift to park when suddenly the engine started revving. It revved to such a high rate that the wheels were squealing, and then the car accelerated forward with such force that it jumped the parking bumper and traveled up a small rocky embankment despite my immediately applying all my strength to the brake pedal. Then as quickly as the car started to revved, the car stopped. I had it towed to the Toyota dealership to be fixed. They explained the that could only run a computer…

I own a 2017 Toyota Sienna XLE Premium, FWD, 8-passenger,equipped with the UA80E automatic transmission. At approximately 150,000 miles, the transmission began making a whine in 3rd gear and higher, most noticeable under steady throttle and worse after the vehicle warms up. The sound appears to come from the transmission, but the exact failed component has not been confirmed. A drain and refill with Toyota ATF WS reduced the noise temporarily, but it returned after about 1,000 . The vehicle had approximately 156,000 miles when I last tracked the issue. I am concerned this may be an internal…

This is Wheelchair accessible van. My wife sitting on it with seat belt on. Wheelchair was locked with a hook at each corner. While driving thru right turn at green light at about 35 mph, wheelchair tipped over to the left completely down to the floor, while hitting my wife's head with door and trapped her head between the door and the wheelchair. Later on, I found out that the left wheel of the wheelchair came off. My best guess is that the locking system failed to function properly and didn't grab the chair from topping. This happened the night of 10/28/2026. She ended up at ER at Mountain…

The styrofoam on the back headrest broke off on the side. I noticed this one day while taking the cover off to clean. The car seat has only experienced normal use and has not been in an accident. Luckily I noticed this before the child was ever at risk. I called the manufacturer and they could only offer a rebate for a new car seat but they recommended I no longer use it. I believe this to be a design flaw with the way the styrofoam is inserted and glued on. Also please note it is graco extend to fit 3 in 1
