2012 Toyota Sequoia Complaints

AS I WAS DRIVING, THE ANTI-SLIP BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON, FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY THE BRAKE LIGHT. THE CONDITIONS WERE DRY AND I WAS ON A STRAIGHT CITY STREET SO THERE WAS NO REASON FOR IT TO LIGHT UP. SINCE IT WAS CONCERNING THE BRAKING SYSTEM, I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AS SOON AS I WAS ABLE. THE BRAKES SEEMED TO BE WORKING PROPERLY. MY OWNERS MANUAL GAVE ME STEPS TO RESET IT, NONE OF WHICH WORKED. AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY FINALLY FIGURED OUT IT WAS THE ANTI-SKID BRAKE ECU. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE DRIVEN BUT I WOULDN'T HAVE THE ANTI-SKID TECHNOLOGY IF I WERE TO EVER NEED TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES OR IF I WERE IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE IS 3 YEARS OLD AND HAD LESS THAN 60 K MILES ON IT AT THE TIME. IT'S A $3000 REPAIR. WHEN I LOOKED INTO IT, THERE ARE REPORTS ONLINE DATING BACK TO 2008 FOR THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. I'M SURE THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THIS TYPE OF REPAIR AND INSTEAD CHOOSE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE ADVANCED SAFETY TECHNOLOGY. I THINK THE...

MY VEHICLE BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY WHEN BRAKING DOWNHILL AT AROUND 60-65 MPH. THIS STARTED AT 15000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. TOYOTA DEALER SAID THE ROTORS WERE WARPED. TOYOTA DEALER AND CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE SAY THEY FEEL THE BRAKE WEAR IS NORMAL AND THEY SAID THE VEHICLE REQUIRES A BRAKE JOB. THE BRAKING SHAKES THE WHOLE VEHICLE SO VIOLENTLY I AM AFRAID I WILL LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COMES ON. I DO NOT NOW WHAT CAUSES IT NOR CAN I MAKE IT HAPPEN IT IS A RANDOM OCCURRENCE. *TR

ON MY 2012 TOYOTA SEQUOIA MY 2YR OLD CHILD HAPPEN TO PULL UP THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW SWITCH WHILE MY 6 YR OLD WAS TALKING TO ME WHEN I WAS STANDING OUTSIDE THE WINDOW. I GRABBED THE WINDOW TO GET IT TO STOP BUT THE WINDOW WOULDN'T STOP AND I COULDN'T OVER POWER THE WINDOW MOTOR. MY WIFE IN THE DRIVERS SEAT WITH THE VEHICLE MOTOR RUNNING STARTED PUSHING DOWN ON THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW SWITCH. WITH THE 2YR OLD PULLING UP ON THE SWITCH AT THE SAME TIME THE DRIVER SWITCH DOESN'T OVERRIDE THE REAR SWITCH. AFTER A BRIEF PANIC OF YELLING AND SCREAMING AS MY 6 YR OLDS WAS HEAD GETTING SMASHED THE 2YR OLD LET GO OF THE SWITCH AND THEN THE DRIVERS SWITCH COULD BE OPERATED TO LOWER THE WINDOW. I FEEL THE WINDOW MOTOR SHOULD HAVE LOWER FORCE PRESSURE AND THE MASTER DRIVERS SWITCH SHOULD BE ABLE TO OVERRIDE ALL OTHER SWITCHES WHILE IN USE. THE WINDOW CAUSED A MINOR INJURY BUT COULD OF BEEN FATAL IF IT HAD BEEN HIS NECK AREA. I FIND THIS AS A DESIGN FLAW AND ALWAYS ASSUMED THERE WAS...

I HAVE A 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA & HAVE HAD ABOUT 7 INSTANCES SINCE THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST WHERE TRAC OFF TRAC VSC AND SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT ALL COME ON WHILE CAR LOCKS UP AND BEEPING NOISE ALL WHILE DRIVING. HAVE FOUND SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THE SAME SITUATION. APPARENTLY TOYOTA RECALLED THE 2003 MODELS FOR THE APPARENT SAME REASON BUT DID NOT INCLUDE THE 2002'S ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS. WOULD BE HORRIBLE IF SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE TOYOTA TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/TOYOTA/SEQUOIA/2002/BRAKES/SERVICE_BRAKES.SHTML. *TR
