Example complaints

“I almost kill myself, the track off goes when I was driving and my car slide to the right after that all lights on the car went on and the code reader do not work says I can't read the codes no codes on the computer”

NHTSA complaint #11318279, filed 2020-03, 110,000 miles

“My car has been having this problem for several months and I decided to bring it in to get it checked and fixed. My signals for the brake light, trac off lights and vsc trace lights all go on at the same time periodically as I am driving anywhere on the freeway or the street, and disapear periodically. I thought I had fixed everything when they diagnosed 5 things on my vehicle that needed to be fixed. One of them was my mass air flow sensors that are making my lights go on and off. …”

NHTSA complaint #11023336, filed 2017-09, 197,000 miles

“Almost every time I go over a bump or dip at 2-3 MPH the traction control light comes up, the vehicle slows down and I am unable to accelerate for a few seconds, then all comes back to normal. It happens every day and a few times I nearly got in the accident due to unexpected slow down.”

NHTSA complaint #10458070, filed 2012-05, 73,290 miles

“In clear weather, on dry pavement, the stability/traction control system will periodically cause the vehicle to abruptly loose power, typically when turning into traffic and hitting a manhole or making a turn through a deeper intersection swale. This causes the vehicle to become unresponsive for 4-5 seconds in front of oncoming traffic - a broadside auto accident waiting to happen. I contacted the local Toyota dealership which offered no assistance. I would love to be able to disconnect or eliminate this system.”

NHTSA complaint #10357951, filed 2010-09, 77,000 miles

“The traction control / vehicle stability control initiates at very low speeds on dry and very stable surfaces nearly every turn I make. The loss of power to the wheels have left me stranded in front of on-coming traffic during left turns and nearly rear-ended on right hand turns. It appears the 2003 Toyota Sequoia's have been recalled for a similar problem: overly aggressive traction control when the vehicle loses power to the wheels it takes 4-5 seconds for the power to be restored and I have had several close calls with respect to being hit by other vehicles.”
