NHTSA Complaint #10909417 — 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA

WHEN I ENTERED THE FREEWAY, MY VSC TRAK AND VSC OFF LIGHTS CAME ON, AND THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT SUDDENLY. I EXITED THE FREEWAY, AND INSPECTED MY VEHICLE, TO FIND NOTHING VISIBLE. I RE-ENTERED THE FREEWAY, TRAVELED APPROX 100 MILES, WITH NO ISSUE. THEN, THE SAME EVENING, I EXITED THE TOLL ROAD NEAR MY HOME, WHEN THE VSC TRAK AND VSC OFF LIGHTS FLASHED AND BEEPED, AND BRAKES LOCKED UP ON AND OFF VIOLENTLY, AS IF THE VEHICLE WAS POSSESSED. I MANAGED TO GET IT HOME, AS I WAS ONLY ABOUT A MILE FROM THERE, WHERE I PARKED IT, AND HAD IT TOWED TO A SHOP. THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO PULL A CODE...THE YAW SENSOR. BUT, THE MECHANIC SAID THAT HE COULD NOT GUARANTEE THAT THIS WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, AFTER TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT, AT ANY SPEED, AND WITH NO WARNING OR VISIBLE REASON FOR DOING SO. THIS POSES A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAYS AT HIGHER SPEEDS. THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE A DEADLY DISASTER AT HIGH SPEEDS, AND WITH MANY OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT AN ISSUE TO IGNORE OR TAKE LIGHTLY.
