Lane departure alert & pre collision system malfunction warning light keep illuminating on the dashboard for a certain amount of time and then will turn off again without warning. This is also affecting the cruise control and the ABS system. I noticed that it affects what seems to be the transmission when I am coming to a stop the car will shake uncontrollably and act like it is out of gear. Almost like it is possessed. It's been doing it on and off since I bought the car and I have taken it to the dealership multiple times and they will fix it temporarily and then several months later it always comes back. This past time has been the worst as it seems like there are multiple electrical components that are being affected and it is actually affecting the steering as well as the breaking and efficient running of the vehicle .

ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
While driving warning lights on dashboard lit up and car shut down.according to screen on dash it showed malfunction of airbags, ABS, lane change warning, among other system parts. Able to restart car and drive it to dealer. Toyota notified me that squirrels had eaten the main wire harness. Not covered under warranty. I did some research and found out toyota and other auto manufacturers use soy based wiring and wire covers which draw all types of rodents to them and they destroy the main harness electrical parts to malfunction. This can cause dangerous situations while driving possibly causing accidents resulting in injury or death. Brakes may fail ,air bags may not deploy etc. Toyota knows of the problem but refuses to correct it. It cost me $5000.00 to repair and I still do not feel safe. I notified toyota corp. Office they took my complaint and said nothing could be done about it. They did give me a case #[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Red brake light, ABS, vsc, power steering, and mil lights came on. Dtc's u0129.
Abs, vsc, mil, multiple warning messages including pre collision system malfunction, lane departure alert malfunction, front camera unavailable, cruise control malfunction. C1336 error code. Zero point calibration undone. Has happened 3 times.
Car has several issues, one is definitely the vehicle warning lights in dash, the warning lights pop up at different times for no reason occasionally and dealers can't find issues, car also has issues with braking system. Several times went around curves it on stops and car locked up and went sideways, dealer said tested but less than a mile put on car?? Car does not act like it has normal ABS and almost got in several accidents with my kids and grandson because of it my stopping or locking up!! Also have issues since I bought it with radio/features/display. Things show up half way or it turns off at times and also calls out even when untouched. Worried about GPS cutting out when needed too. Also plastic part under passaged side glove box continuously falls off, took to dealer and they just put back in, didn't replace but you could see the bend where hook was. And gas mileage and the recent CVT recall, they updated, not replaced after I asked and described how it was driving, and still having issues because they didn't replace after I said it wouldn't go over a certain speed during highway travel or roads requiring over 45 MPH. The driving warning thing when you go over lines doesn't always work either, it does 50% of the time. Explained that too but nothing done. Very concerned about this car!! Had since 11/2016 and barely drove because of issues and safety concerns. It out has 8000 miles because of it.
