Consumer Description

AT RANDOM TIMES ALL OF THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS AND OTHER LIGHTS ON THE DASH ILLUMINATE. IT ALSO SEEMS TO GET HARDER TO STEER THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AND DRUM THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND POSSIBLY AN AXLE OR SPINDLE. FOR A CAR BOUGHT NEW IN 2008 WITH ONLY 42,000 MILES THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT. I AM CONCERNED OF THE SAFETY OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND HAVING A WHEEL COME OFF. THE DEALER WANTS A BUNCH OF MONEY TO FIX IT. UNHAPPY TOYOTA OWNER. *TR
