“The 2022 Toyota Sienna temporarily accelerates or surges forward while braking, or has a momentary loss of braking / deceleration before it re-engages in braking.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Sep 2025
“When braking and coming to almost a complete stop, the vehicle will randomly lurch forward. This situation has caused me to run stop signs and almost hit pedestrians on crosswalks. This failure has been independently observed by myself, wife and mother. The vehicle did not display and warnings prior to the failure. The vehicle has not yet been inspected or reproduced by a third party.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Aug 2025
“When braking there is a lunge forward sensation that causes the van to propel forward a little. The happens intermittently and can cause scares especially when driving with children. A T-SB-0047-24 was applied and still experiencing the same issue as it did not solve the issue.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jul 2025

“Brakes randomly feel like they are slipping when I go to stop, could be a flat surface, but almost always if I am coming to a stop on a bumpy surface.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jun 2025
“During braking, I occasionally get the unexpected feeling that the car isn't stopping. It presents a risk to safety. The problem remained even after I paid for the TSB. There is no pattern to it.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jun 2025
“Unexpected sudden acceleration (when braking) as I was slowing down from exiting a highway, just as I was approaching full stop, it felt like the regenerative braking stopped grabbing momentarily and I violently lurched forward for what seemed like a feet or two. I thought it was a fluke back then and thought nothing of it. It just happened again today as I approached a stop sign - again as I neared complete stop with brake depressed it felt like the brake stopped working for a second and the car again lurched forward violently as if I had lost control for what seemed like a foot. Would have hit the car in front of me if there was one.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jun 2025
“seat retractor failure- white plastic part off and visible , seat is making popping noise when seat is being adjusted. Noticed this when i picked up from dealer after oil change. I feel this is a driving safety concern. Larry H Miller American Toyota (Albuquerque, NM) service manager states it's safe to drive, however I feel this is a huge safety concern. The seat was in working order did not have this issue during drop off of service. However I believe this is a failure on Toyota engineering. I would like some guidance on how to get this repaired as they want me to pay $2,000.”Owner report · Seats · May 2025
“During braking the vehicle will lose braking force and "lurch" forward before regaining braking power. It usually happens at about 15-20mph decelerating. There are no warning lights associated with this. The dealer recommended we brake harder to prevent the issue. It still happens and the extra braking force leads to unnecessary wear on braking and suspension components. This caused us to have a near-mis accident while braking in traffic. It also causes quite a distraction during deceleration because it's unpredictable and uncomfortable when it happens.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Feb 2025
“The driver side control panel trim keeps snapping off. I've researched it and it's happened to others. It's been repaired 3 times!”Owner report · Seats · Feb 2025
