2002 Toyota Sequoia Electronic Stability Control Problems

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

DRIVING AT 70 MPH. ON THE EXPRESS WAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ASC AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STARTED TO FLICKER AND ANTI-LOCKING BRAKE ENGAGED BY ITSELF SEVERELY. BROUGHT THE CAR TO ABOUT 30 MPH. IN MATTER OF SECONDS. THE TRUCK STARTED TO SWERVE TO THE RIGHT AND HAD TO CROSS 3 LANES TO THE SHOULDER. VERY FORTUNATE DID NOT GET IN AN ACCIDENT WITH 4 PASSENGERS IN THE TRUCK. THE TOYOTA DEALER SHIP IDENTIFIED HE PROBLEM OF "YAW SENSOR" FAILURE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THIS FAILURE COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH POTENTIALLY AT LEAST SOME SEVER INJURIES.*JB

WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH ON A ICY ROAD CONSUMER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ROLLED INTO A DITCH. CONSUMER FELT THAT T STABILITY OF THE VEHICLE WAS AT FAULT. THE WERE NO INJURIES. *AK

CONSUMER STATES THE VEHICLE SKID CONTROL LIGHTS ACTIVATE AND MOST OF THE ENGINE POWER IS INSTANTANEOUSLY CUT, USUALLY ENGINE POWER IS NOT RESTORED UNTIL THE VEHICLE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED MOVING, WHEN THIS MALFUNCTION OCCURS ON THE FREEWAY, IT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO LOSE THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN A SPEED CONSISTENT WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AND A VERY HAZARDOUS SPEED DIFFERENTIAL OCCURS.*JB
