2000 Toyota Sienna Xle 5-door Van With Sunroof ~ Has Electrical Issue on 2040-cars
Doylestown, Ohio, United States
|
For sale is a 2000 Toyota Sienna XLE 5-Door VAN with Sunroof ~ that Has Electrical Issues. I got this from my brother 2 years ago when he was going to purchase a new vehicle. It ran and operated fine. I let it sit much of last winter and went to drive it this spring and found that the battery was dead. It did not want to hold a charge so I purchased a new battery. After removing the old one and installing the new one, I found that the van would start but has no electronics working. It could be a fuse or the ground but I have not had the chance to investigate. All lights and gauges are out as well as . At one point last winter I did use the van. When the rear hatch iced over, including the latch, the latch broke or let loose when being pulled on to open the rear hatch. I do not know what it would take to repair that. I also found last winter that I occasionally had to tap on the starter in order to get it to turn over. Once warmed up, it would start just fine. The sun roof was always working perfectly and has no leaks. There are some cosmetic concerns but I consider that fairly normal with a van of this age. I guess I could take it to a shop and have these issues repaired, but fall is approaching once again and I have too many other unfinished projects to deal with. I do not want to sit out for another season, which could only make matters worse. You are buying this vehicle in "AS IS" condition and will be required to come get it. It is drivable but there are no brake lights. The mechanicals all seem to be in good shape. |

Union to launch Toyota organization drive in Canada
Sun, 12 Jan 2014Toyota may be heading toward some labor issues in the Great White North, as employees at a pair of Canadian Toyota factories may be set for a certification vote. The Unifor union, which was the result of a merger last year between the Canadian Auto Workers and the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers union, will be holding the vote.
Over 40 percent of the employees at the Woodstock and Cambridge, Ontario factories have signed union cards, cresting the minimum percentage required to instigate a legal certification vote, according to Reuters. The Woodstock factory is responsible for RAV4 production, while Cambridge builds the Lexus RX350 and RX450h, as well as the Toyota Corolla. The two factories employ nearly 7,000 people.
It's unclear when the union will hold a certification vote at the two factories, but what is rather clear are the worker complaints. Employees are concerned about workers being hired on temporary contracts which lack the benefits of full employment, John Aman, head of organizing for Unifor, told Reuters.
Toyota settles for $3M after being found liable in sudden acceleration case
Sat, 26 Oct 2013A jury has decided that faulty software was to blame for a crash involving a 2005 Toyota Camry that killed one woman and injured another. This is the first time Toyota has been found liable by a jury in a lawsuit involving sudden acceleration claims. Toyota has maintained that driver error is the most likely cause for cases of sudden acceleration.
Shortly after the jury in the case, which took place in Oklahoma and centered around a crash that injured 76-year-old Jean Bookout and killed her passenger, Barbara Schwarz, reached a verdict that would see Toyota paying $3 million in compensatory damages, a confidential settlement was reached. The jury, which had found Toyota liable for "reckless disregard" for public safety, had yet to decide what punitive damages Toyota would face.
Toyota said in a statement, "While we strongly disagree with the verdict, we are satisfied that the parties reached a mutually acceptable agreement to settle this case. We will continue to defend our products vigorously at trial in other legal venues."
Subaru Viziv 2 presages Tribeca replacement with diesel hybrid tech
Mon, 31 Mar 2014Subaru is in the middle of a new product bonanza. It has recent replacements for the Impreza and Forester at dealers, and soon we're getting the WRX, Legacy and if rumors are right the new Outback as well. Now, there are rumblings that there could be two more models from the Japanese brand on the way with styling inspired by the Viziv 2 concept from the Geneva Motor Show.
According to a company insider speaking with Motor Trend, the crossover concept shows the way for the brand's future design language. The shape would be used on a smaller CUV that is still being kept quite secret, and a second, larger one that would replace the recently axed Tribeca. The bigger model is the first priority and is planned as a new technology showcase.
It's rumored to use a turbodiesel, four-cylinder boxer engine that would be boosted with one electric motor on the front axle and two at the rear, with a plug-in hybrid system sourced from Toyota. It should provide a great mix of torque and fuel economy. A smaller flat-six engine would be a second powertrain option. Though the Viziv 2 concept only seats four, the production version would probably offer three rows.
