Consumer Description
2007 SEQUOIA VSC TRAC SENSOR LIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF AND HEARING GRINDING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING. ALONG WITH THE VSC TRAC SENSOR LIGHTS TURNING ON, THE BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHT TURNS ON AS WELL. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE HAPPENED AS I WAS PICKING UP MY DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL, AND AS I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM THE SCHOOL DOING NO MORE THAN 20 MPH - MY VEHICLE MADE A GRINDING NOISE AND ALL THE ABOVE LISTED INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO (NERVOUSLY) DRIVE MY VEHICLE HOME. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. DURING THESE INSTANCES, I HAVE NOTICED DECREASE ACCELERATION AND MY VEHICLE FEELS LIKE THE REAR IS SLIDING FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I AM AFRAID OF NOT BEING ABLE TO STOP IN TIME, THE BRAKES FAILING COMPLETELY OR A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER AS A RESULT OF THIS.
