Consumer Description

MY 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA FIRST STARTED A YEAR AGO IN 2009 THE VSC LIGHTS WOULD COME ON FOR NO REASON. IN AUGUST 2010 THE VSC LIGHTS CAME ON AND STAYED ON JUST GOING DOWN THE ROAD ALL OF A SUDDEN A LOUD BEEPING NOISE COMES ON AND THE BRAKES AND VEHICLE START SHAKING AND VIBRATING UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAS DONE THIS ABOUT 10 TIMES NOW THE LAST TWO TIMES IT WAS SO BAD THE CAR STARTED BREAKING OFF THE ROAD AND I ALMOST RAN IN A DITCH. VERY DANGEROUS TO SAY THE LEAST, MY THREE CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR. I HAVE NOTICED RECALLS ON THE 2003 MODELS BUT NOT ON THE 2002. WHEN IS TOYOTA GOING TO OWN UP TO THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON THEIR OTHER MODELS. THEY HAVE TO KNOW THIS THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT PROBLEM. I SURE HOPE THEY DO AND SOON BECAUSE ME AND MY CHILDREN COULD HAVE DIED THIS LAST TIME. *TR
