Consumer Description

DRIVING AT 70 MPH. ON THE EXPRESS WAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ASC AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STARTED TO FLICKER AND ANTI-LOCKING BRAKE ENGAGED BY ITSELF SEVERELY. BROUGHT THE CAR TO ABOUT 30 MPH. IN MATTER OF SECONDS. THE TRUCK STARTED TO SWERVE TO THE RIGHT AND HAD TO CROSS 3 LANES TO THE SHOULDER. VERY FORTUNATE DID NOT GET IN AN ACCIDENT WITH 4 PASSENGERS IN THE TRUCK. THE TOYOTA DEALER SHIP IDENTIFIED HE PROBLEM OF "YAW SENSOR" FAILURE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THIS FAILURE COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH POTENTIALLY AT LEAST SOME SEVER INJURIES.*JB
