The master pressure sensor is failing and from what I am reading this has been a common complaint in the early 2000's toyotas but no one has done nothing about it besides charge an awful amount to fix. My vehicle when in 4wd brakes will lock up and I still slide no matter what gear or how slow I am going. I have almost slid into countless cars.

My vsc trac, trac off and check engine lights all came on yesterday. I was driving so I'm not sure if they all came on at the same time or not. The brake does not over ride cruise control on highway. So it will continue gas up even you use brake under cruise control mode. This is pretty disappointing since this problem has been seen all the way back to the first generation

The secondary injection system has failed. Toyota is aware of this defect and has extended the warranty for this issue on 2008-2010 sequoia. The 2007 has the same engine and same defective parts but toyota will not cover the replacement. Hey should cover all vehicles with the same engine types because they are all going to have the same issue! This repair can cost the consumer up to $3600. The vehicle makes a loud sound upon starting and the trac and ABS light and check engine light appears. My vehicle is at the dealer but in my opinion toyota should repair these vehicle free of charge especially if this is a known issue.

Vsc activates frequently on low speed, 90 deg turns, under completely dry driving conditions, causing a brief (several seconds) loss of power to wheels. Seems to primarily occur on right turns. This occurs every time on certain turns, which leads me to believe that it may have something to do with vehicle orientation and/or intersection geometry.

My vehicle is a toyota sequoia 2004 4 wheel drive. Since about 2 years, the vsc and brake lights stay on off and on. I took this to the local dealer. He said this is an inherent problem in the sequoia vehicles stretching from 2001 to 2007. He wanted to change a computer costing about $1200.00. In doing research on line, I noted that this is a constant problem in these vehicles. In one case, the brakes stopped working. 1.

While the vehicle was traveling at about 40 MPH it suddenly loses engine power and the vehicle becomes hard to steer. Both the vsc off and trac off lights came on. I had to pull to the side and the car died completely. I turned off the car but could not turn it on immediately. I waited for about 5 minutes and tried again and it started up fine, but after I drove for less than half mile the same issue happened again. It happened a total of 6 times within a couple of miles. Since then it's been happening every few days. Took it to my mechanic but they could not pull a code. Searching online it seems this is a common problem that happened to many 1st generation sequoias.

When driving conditions are dry, warm weather, I make a turn from a complete stop and the vehicle stability control (skid control) light starts blinking and acceleration is diminished significantly. The vehicle bogs down and I can not accelerate and almost get hit from the oncoming traffic. I have taking it to the dealer several times and for some reason, they cannot replicate it. My vehicle has 65000 miles on it now and it is happening more frequently. Unfortunately, the warranty has expired. But, this is a serious flaw in the design of the stability system. It happens on a daily basis. Please help in forcing a recall.
