NHTSA Complaint #10604813 — 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA

ON HWY 1 FROM PACIFICA TO SANTA CRUZ, DRIVING APPROX, 45-50MPH AROUND THE BENDS AND CURVES, THE VAN'S VSC LIGHT WOULD COME ON ALONG WITH WARNING BEEPING AND THE CAR WOULD TRY TO "CORRECT" ITSELF BY STEERING STRAIGHT WHEN I NEEDED IT NOT TO. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN APPROX. 1-2 MONTHS LATER WHILE DRIVING ALONG HWY 50, AT APPROX. 45-50MPH UP TO SOUTH LAKE TAHOE ON THE SAME DRY, BUT WINDING/CURVY ROADS, THE CAR WOULD TRY TO "CORRECT" ITSELF BY STEERING STRAIGHT. AGAIN, ON JUNE 17TH, ALONG HWY 50 APPROX. 45-50MPH JUST TAKING THE EXIT OFF OF THE FREEWAY, STEERING INTO THE RIGHT HAND TURN LANE, THE CAR VSC LIGHT, BEEPING AND STEERING "CORRECTION". THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS!!!! I AM SURPRISED THAT IT HAS NOT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT YET!. I NEED THE CAR TO TURN FOR A REASON!! PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. I TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THE VAN HAD NO LOGS FROM THE SENSORS (STEERING ANGLE OR YAW). WE ASKED THEM TO RECALIBRATE IT (SET IT BACK TO ZERO), BUT THAT OBVIOUSLY HASN'T WORKED. I HAVE ORDERED A NEW STEERING ANGLE SENSOR AND I AM HAVING IT INSTALLED AND THE SYSTEM RECALIBRATED, IN HOPES THAT WILL FIX THE ISSUE. *TR
