NHTSA Complaint #10735983 — 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA

ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES BY ITSELF DRIVING ON A FLAT, DRY ROAD. ABS/TRAC LIGHTS HAVE INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED FOR A FEW YEARS (WITHOUT ABS ACTIVATION TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, MY WIFE DRIVES THE VEHICLE PRIMARILY), LIGHTS TURN OFF WHEN KEY IS CYCLED, NO CODES PRESENT IN THE SYSTEM WHEN SCANNED PREVIOUSLY. LAST OCCURRENCE FOR ME WAS AT 45MPH, AGAIN A FLAT DRY ROAD. VSC/TRAC LIGHTS FLASH, A WARNING BUZZER SOUNDS, AND THE ABS CREATES A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AS IT ACTIVATES. VEHICLE PULLED SHARPLY TO THE LEFT AND UP ONTO THE CENTER MEDIAN. NO ACCIDENT DUE TO A ROUNDED CURB AND WIDE CENTER MEDIAN. HOWEVER, IF THE CENTER MEDIAN WERE NOT THERE IT COULD PULL A VEHICLE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC ON AN UNDIVIDED HIGHWAY RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT.
