Consumer Description

BRAKES FAIL ON OCCASION AND VSC LIGHT, TRAC OFF LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON. HARD TO STOP VEHICLE. TURNING CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN SEEM TO TEMPORARILY SOLVE THE PROBLEM. SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A COMMON ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE 2006 SEQUOIA BASED ON PREVIOUS POSTS. TAKEN TO DEALER ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO IDENTIFY PROBLEM.

PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE LOSS OF STOPPING POWER WITH SUCH A LARGE VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
