Consumer Description

MY 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA, VSC TRACTION CONTROL ENGAGES IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. THE CAR SHAKES PROFUSELY, LOUD BEEPING NOISE, JERKS AND ACTS AS THOUGH IT"S NOT GOING TO STOP. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO TOYOTA LAST WEEK THEY REPLACE FRONT BRAKE PADS, RESURFACE THE ROTORS, BALANCE AND ROTATED THE TIRES. BUT THAT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM IT HAPPEN AGAIN OVER THE WEEKEND, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO TOYOTA THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH IT. THIS IS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. I DID A SEARCH ONLINE AND THERE HAS BEEN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM CONSUMERS CONCERNING THE 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA VSC TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM. TOYOTA REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE 2001 TOY SEQUOIA HASN"T BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I BELIEVED THE IS A SAFETY DEFECT ON TOYOTA PART AND MAY CAUSE SERIOUS CRASH AND LOST OF LIFE.
