Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA, I PULLED INTO TRAFFIC AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK LOST POWER AS CARS SWERVED AROUND ME AND A VIOLENT GRINDING NOISE STARTED. A SKID CONTROL LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I COULD FEEL THE GRINDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE TRUCK BEEPED AND 2 MORE LIGHTS CAME ON. THE "TRAC OFF" AND "VSC" CAME ON. AFTER THAT THE TRUCK DROVE NORMAL. THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED THAT DAY WAS WHILE I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AS I WAS TRYING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN INTO A GAS STATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES NOW! I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE ON THE ROAD AS THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN AT ANY MOMENT. I HAVE READ ALL ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET. MANY SEQUOIA OWNERS HAVE HAD THESE SAME PROBLEMS. WHY WILL TOYOTA NOT FIX THESE PROBLEMS??? WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN FOR THEM TO FEEL RESPONSIBLE?? *TR
