2022 Toyota Sienna problems, complaints & recalls

Far fewer Too few recent reports to judge

NHTSA has received 15 owner complaints about the 2022 Toyota Sienna, or 3.2 per year on the road — far fewer complaints than typical for a vehicle of its age (complaint index 0.08, where 1.00 is the average of all tracked vehicles). Among the 92 model-year 2022 vehicles we track, it ranks #6 for fewest complaints per year. Against other Toyota models its rate is 91% lower; against other Minivans it is 94% lower.

Counts are normalized by time on the road, not by sales volume: a popular model generates more reports than a rare one, and complaints are not verified individually. How we count

Limited data: fewer than 30 complaints, so shares and indexes are unstable.

Complaints filed between 2026-02-06 and 2026-08-24. Median delay from incident to filing: 1 days.
