All Traction Control System Complaints — Page 2
SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 12/2000 (2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA SR5 4X4) I HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING RECURRING ISSUES, WHICH WERE BROUGHT UP WITH THE DEALER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WITH NO REMEDY: 1) TRAC AND VSC LIGHTS GOING ON/OFF WITH NO ERROR CODES THROWN 2) OIL PRESSURE GAUGE READING OFF-LINE LOW WITH NO ERROR CODES THROWN TO DATE, THE ISSUES ABOVE HAVE NOT CAUSED A CRASH OR BODILY INJURY, BUT AS THIS IS MY FAMILY CAR (TWO YOUNG CHILDREN) IT HAS BEEN CONCERNING. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR, MY 01-07 AND THEY SEEM TO BE KNOWN ISSUES WHICH HAVE ACTUALLY RESULTED IN FIRE/CRASH. I CANNOT FILL OUT THE INCIDENT DATE ACCURATELY BELOW AS THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS (SINCE DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE). *TR
MY 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE VSC TRAC CONTROL. THE VEHICLE'S DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND IT STARTS BEEPING AND THE VEHICLE STARTS JERKING AROUND AND MAKING A GRINDING NOISE AND THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK HARDLY AT ALL. THIS IS HAPPENING ALMOST EVERY DAY I DRIVE NOW. IT'S SCARY. IT WILL LAST FOR AROUND 20 SECONDS OR SO AND GO AWAY,ALTHOUGH THE VSC/TRAC LIGHTS STAY ON THE DASH. *TR
HAVE A 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA AND RECENTLY REGISTERED A VSC SKID ERROR ON THE DASH. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH + THE CAR BECAME HARD TO CONTROL AS AND IT FELT AS IF THE TRUCK WANTED TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH. THE BRAKES SEEMED TO BE WORKING WITHOUT PRESSING THE BRAKES AND IT FELT LIKE I HAD BLOWN A TIRE. THIS SEEMS TO BE VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS ON A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE WITH LOTS OF TRAFFIC. *TR
WHILE DRIVING OUR 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA, THERE IS A LOSS OF POWER AND GRINDING NOISE FROM THE WHEELS JUST BEFORE THE VSC OFF AND TRAC OFF LIGHTS COME ON AND THE VEHICLE BEGINS BEEPING. OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP INDICATES THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS, ALTHOUGH INTERNET RESEARCH INDICATES WE ARE NOWHERE CLOSE TO BEING ALONE WITH THIS INCIDENT. WE HAVE CONCERNS OVER PASSENGER SAFETY OPERATING THIS VEHICLE AT ANY SPEED. *TR
