2005 TOYOTA RAV4 Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

WHILE DRIVING THE VSC LIGHT AND ALARM FLASH AND SOUND AND THE VEHICLE APPLIES THE BRAKES CAUSING VEHICLE TO VEER INTO OTHER LANE

WHEN DRIVING 25-30 MPH AND GOING AROUND CURVES AT LOW SPEED THE CAR BREAKS HARD AND FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING OUT OF CONTROL. IT IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION DOING 25-30 MPH. THIS IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN AT LEAST THREE TIMES THIS WEEK. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON FREEWAY AND ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS WHILE GOING AROUND CURVES AND NOT GOING FAST AT ALL..

I'VE TAKEN TO 6 MECHANICS AND NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IT IS BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS NO CONSTANTLY ON. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY WANTED $400 TO DIAGNOSE AND THERE WAS NO GUARANTEE. I THINK THIS IS A SERIOUS DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE I LOSE CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE WHEN THE ROAD IS CLEAR AND DRY. IT BEEPS AND I GUESS TRIES TO STABILIZE ITSELF. ALWAYS ON THE HIGHWAY. ON THE STREETS THE TRACTION LIGHT FLASHES FREQUENTLY.

I'VE BEEN HAVING AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE WITH MY 2005 RAV 4. WHEN EXITING A HIGHWAY ON A SWEEPING RIGHT CURVE EXIT RAMP, THE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT WILL START TO FLASH AND AN AUDIBLE BEEP CAN BE HEARD IN THE CABIN. THIS USUALLY INDICATES THE CAR IS IN A SKID BUT I ASSURE YOU I AM IN FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, IN ITS LANE. AFTER 2 TO 3 SECONDS OF CONSTANT BEEPING THE ENGINE CUTS POWER AND APPLIES BRAKING TO AN INDIVIDUAL WHEEL, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LURCH SLIGHTLY TO ONE SIDE. JUST AS QUICKLY AS THIS HAPPENS, THE CAR RESUMES NORMAL OPERATION AND THE ISSUE CEASES TO EXIST. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THIS VERY ISSUE IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS. MOST HAPPEN AT SLOW SPEEDS (UNDER 35MPH) AND ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE VEHICLE SUSPENSION AND ALIGNMENT ARE WITHIN OPERATING SPECIFICATION. I HAVE NOTICED HOWEVER, THAT THE...

AS I EXIT THE HIGHWAY ON SHARP OFF RAMPS OR TAKE OTHER SIMILAR TIGHT TURNS, VSC TRAC SENSOR LIGHTS TURNS ON AND OFF AND I CAN HEAR GRINDING NOISE WHEN TRACTION CONTROL AUTO-ENGAGES AND DISENGAGES. THE ROADWAYS HAVE NEVER BEEN SLICK OR WET AND THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS (30-50 MPH). *TR
