Consumer Description

STARTING IN DECEMBER OF 2014 MY 2003 TOYOTA SEQUOIA HAS HAD THE BRAKE LIGHT COMING ON AND WHEN APPLYING THE BREAKS HAVING SHAKING IN THE FRONT END. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO TOYOTA AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, ECU. THEY REPLACED THE SKID CONTROL ECU AND THE RIGHT REAR SPEED SENSOR. COSTING ME 1196.90. THEN IN MARCH THE BRAKE LIGHT STARTED COMING ON AND OFF AGAIN PERIODICALLY. IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2015 AND ON THE WAY HOME FROM CHURCH THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND VSC AND TRACTION CONTROL , AND ENGINE LIGHTS KEEP COMING ON. I WAS TURNING AND THE ENGINE STALLED AND NEARLY DIED IN ONE OF THE BUSIEST INTERSECTIONS. I HAVE SINCE PARKED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY AND WILL HAVE TO GET SOMEONE OVER HERE TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL SAFE OR COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.
