Consumer Description

IT STARTED A YEAR OR SO AGO THE WHILE DRIVING ON DRY ROAD ABOVE 50MILES THE VSC LIGHT WOULD LIT WITH A ALARM SOUND, THE VAN WILL AUTOMATICALLY APPLY BRAKES AND SLOW THE SIENNA. SINCE THIS WAS EXTRA VAN AND WE WERE DRIVING MOSTLY SEDANS WE HAD AND DUE TO BUSINESS I COULD NOT SPEND ANY TIME ON IT.. NOW IT HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY AND IT RISK OUR LIFES ON HIGHWAY. UPON SEARCHING INTERNET VARIOUS FORUMS CAME WITH WITH PROBLEMS PERTAINING ONLY TO THIS YEAR AND MODEL, PLEASE SEARCH (SUDDEN VSC ACTIVATION) AND YOU WILL FIND MULTIPLE OWNER ONLY OF 2004 COMPLAINING FOR SAME ISSUE.. IN FACT THERE ARE TO TWO TSB ARTICLES TO POINT TO THIS PROBLEM ( TSB-BR001-04 AND TSB-BR004-03) . I WOULD KINDLY REQUEST TO INVESTIGATE THE SUDDEN VSC ACTIVATION IN MIDDLE OF HIGHWAY. I HAVE SPENT MONEY TO REPLACE TIRES, ALIGMENT BALANCING TO FIND THE ISSUE IS WIDESPREAD.
