Everything in this factory service and repair manual is written for the 2013 Toyota Sienna exactly as Toyota built it that year, down to the 3.5L V6 (2GRFE) under the hood and the trim level stamped on your door jamb, so the clearances, torque values and service sequences you work to are the figures Toyota released for this van and not numbers that merely happen to sit close to them.

Known issues on the 2013 Sienna. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the body door structure: if the power sliding door opens while the vehicle is moving, there is an increased risk of injury. A second, filed by Vantage Mobility International on 2012-2018 AMS Genesis wheelchair vans built on the Toyota Sienna, covers the rubber rear brake hoses, whose failure can result in a loss of vehicle control. A third covers the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module, where an inflator explosion may send sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. The fourth, from Southeast Toyota Distributors, covers the frontal air bag sensor and control module, where the front passenger seat occupant sensing system can be out of calibration. Owners have filed 225 complaints against the 2013 Sienna, and 133 technical service bulletins are on record.
Sliding door work, a rear brake hose inspection, an occupant sensing fault or plain scheduled service on the 3.5L V6 all get handled the way Toyota documented them for the 2013 Sienna.
