2001 Toyota Sequoia Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“My 2001 Sequoia (151,000 mi) which has been garaged and maintained meticulously is suddenly showing the vsc lights and brake lights at the same time! There is a very rough feeling when I'm driving the car like something in the undercarriage is very wrong. There is a clunking noise as slow as 5 MPH at all times and all speeds. At high speeds, the car will suddenly pull to the left momentarily and then release itself but the lights never go out unless car is off. …”

“The check engine, vsc, and traction lights on my 2001 Toyota Sequoia all came on simultaneously at 82,000 miles, I was told that I need to replace the transmission for $3800.00 and the computer needs replacing for about $2000.00. The brakes have been constant struggle requiring replacement every 8 months.”

“Driving down the road starting hearing weird noise coming from engine are. I made it home and next day I was driving tried to acelerate and it wouldn't . Engine kept running but it would not move had truck towed home(62 miles) car is a 2001 with 118000 miles never would think this would happen to Toyota..pls help.”

“2001 Toyota Sequoia was recalled due to corrosion of the frame. All parts such as the back plates for the brakes, tie rod ends, stabilizer bars, and many more attached had rust when it went into the shop. However, Toyota did not care that the rust had spread. I could have wrecked several times due to the negligence of Toyota. It has been costly and the car is not the same since the transfer of the frame. Rust spreads as cancer and is as deadly when it is under your car. I will have to spend thousands of dollars to ensure the safety of my family.”

“In 2007, I was driving my Toyota Sequoia to work and it stopped in the middle of a busy highway. I took it to a shop they told me that my transmission fail and it cost me $3500.00. I called Toyota for some assistance they did not even care about.”
