Consumer Description

THE SKID CONTROL COMPUTER ON MY 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING LOW POWER/LOW ACCELERATION. THE ENGINE HAS 65,000 MILES. BECAUSE THIS PART FAILED, SEVERAL ENGINE PARTS MALFUNCTIONED. THE ENGINE NEARLY BLEW UP AS A RESULT. TOYOTA RECALLED 2003-04 MODELS FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM, BUT HAS ONLY ISSUED A TSB FOR THE 2005 MODEL. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THAT MY ENGINE WOULD NOT HAVE NEARLY EXPLODED HAD THE SKID COMPUTER NOT BEEN FAULTY. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA, AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS PART IS NOT CONSIDERED TO BE A PROBLEM IN THE 2005 MODEL, AND WILL NOT ASSIST IN REPAIRING IT. THE ESTIMATED REPAIR FOR THIS IS $4000. *TR
