What Owners Say
"Both rear calibers seized on different occasions"
D G., ME (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"Rear caliper froze which wore out the pad and rotor"
H S., NY (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"right-rear caliper was sticking, caused pre-mature wear, had to replace all rear brake components"
Anonymous, ID (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"Did not release properly - causing overheating"
Lynn S., CO (2010 Toyota Sienna Limited 3.5-L V6)"The brakes were "squishy". We took the car in for that problem. They found the Master cylinder was leaking. They replaced that at Midas. In the course of that repair, they found evidence of a leaking Head Gasket. We took the van to Toyota for that repair, it was covered by the extendended warranty. The water pump and the spark plugs were also replaced at the same time while the engine was all apart.. we were happy with the service"
Michael H., IL (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"fluid leak"

Anonymous, NY (2010 Toyota Sienna Unsure 3.5-L V6)"Had to have rear brakes and rotors replaced. Dealer said problem was due to rust. they were not worn. Has to be either poor design or poor quality"
Lonnie S., WI (2010 Toyota Sienna CE 3.5-L V6)"When I took my van into the dealership for front brake replacement, I was told I also needed back brakes. When I said that I found it unusual to have to replace the rear brakes at the same time as the front brakes, the dealership's "service consultan"
D S., ON (2010 Toyota Sienna CE 3.5-L V6)"Routine brake wear was not fixed properly, so still hear some grinding after 3 attempts to fix it"
Charles C., MA (2010 Toyota Sienna Limited 3.5-L V6)"Breaks appear to be significantly undersized for the capacity of the vehicle and wear very, very quickly likely due to overheating"
Kelsey G., NS (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"See: squeaking"
David T., ON (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"they rust very fast and are very expensive, I replaced them by independent manufacturer at one half the cost and they perform very well"
Anonymous, QC (2010 Toyota Sienna CE 3.5-L V6)"Had to replace the rear brake rotors, but not surprised by this. It was expected, normal wear and tear"
Donna O., PA (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"Needs brakes and rotors turned about every 30-40k"

David T., ON (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"Squeaking when backing up.Front pads were replaced"
Robert R., CA (2010 Toyota Sienna Unsure 3.5-L V6)"Brakes often squeak while backing out of the driveway"
James K., MI (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"It's more like "scrapping" in the front brakes when brake pedal is hard applied; diagnosed as rotors; replaced twice and still not solved"
L W., VA (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"We have had the brakes replaced three times. Each time they squeak when you place pressure on the breaks. Very odd and something that I thought would go away after the dealer installed new brake pads"

Anonymous, WA (2010 Toyota Sienna LE 3.5-L V6)"pretty expensive"
Joe M., TX (2010 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5-L V6)"There are disc brakes on all 4 wheels. Drums on the back wheels would have made the repair bill much cheaper"
