2005 toyota sequoia vac trac disengaged lost control / accelerator/brakes/ took auto to repair dealer could not find problem.
The traction control computer on my 2005 toyota sequoia was found to be faulty. Toyota issued a technical service bulletin related to this but will not reimburse or recall those with this faulty computer even when their technical service bulletins clearly states that there was a problem with the skid control computer logic. In my case, the bad skid control computer (part #89541-oc070) caused my vehicle to not be able to accelerate in certain instances. As this problem happened randomly, it presented danger to the driver as well as other vehicles. I believe that this part should be recalled in all toyota sequoias with model years 2003 - 2005 as indicated in toyota's service bulletin.
Vsc, track, and brake lamp stay on. Toyota has not repaired problem. Was first brought to them in warranty when they said they had to replace the computer but didn't have the part. They have since replaced the computer but the problem persist. Now they say it is a master cylinder sensor (2 of them) but still have not repaired. When first brought to them, I was told this was a common problem. Have since noticed that the internet is filled with this same problem. This affects traction and is an obvious safety problem and should be recalled. This problem has continued from 2005 to present.
I have a 2005 toyota sequoia with 56,000 miles on it. Over the past month the dash board brake warning light has started coming on. I took the truck to the dealer last week, sterling mccall toyota in houston, texas. The dealer diagnostics revealed a error code on the computer of c1247 stroke sensor failure. After a day the light came back on. The dealers response was that a $2,300 ecu was required to correct the problem. If you look online there are hundreds and thousands of similar complain on this vehicle. Something has to be done!
I have a 2005 toyota sequoia with 36,000 miles on it. Over the past month the dash board brake warning light has started coming on. I took the truck to the dealer last week, arlington toyota in jacksonville florida. The dealer diagnostics revealed a error code on the computer of c1247 stroke sensor failure. After a $100 adjustment of the brake light switch, with in a day the light came back on. The dealer's response was that a $2,300 ecu was required to correct the problem. I am amazed that a vehicle with 36, 00 miles and less that 4 years old could require a part that expensive. Doing a little research on the internet it is clear that this is a systemic problem toyota trucks. An internet search will return pages of 'hits' covering several model years of toyota trucks from hundreds of victimized owners. Most of those posts detail owners being taken for thousands of dollars by toyota service departments as their technicians struggle to correct the problem by replacing multiple very expensive parts. In my mind, this is clearly something the government needs to get involved in, as quickly as possible. I do not know if there is a safety issue here. To me a sensor detecting an issue with a vehicles breaking system is not something that should be ignored and the manufacturer should be required to correct this clearly systemic problem with one of their products.

I have a 2005 toyota sequoia limited 2wd. At random times the vsc dealership, vsc off, ABS, and parking brake lights all come on at once. They will stay on until I stop the vehicle and turn the ignition off. When I restart the truck they will function normally. There are many theories of why this happens, but my dealership says nothing is wrong. I am worried about a costly repair when I am out of warranty or a potential safety issue. I have had the truck at the dealership multiple times and they say they can't find anything wrong.
Check engine and vsc off / vsc trac lights keep coming on. Have been reset but keep coming on after a few days to a week. Now maint req. Light is coming on as well. Also experiencing excessive idle speed which causes brakes to feel like they do not fully work.
The vsc computer on my 2005 toyota sequoia failed and when I looked for help in the auto club I found out that this appear to be a common problem with sequoias.
Vsc computer failure and engine will not accelerate.
