I own a 2006 toyota sienna le with only 26500 miles on it. I was driving my car on the highway doing 45 miles per hour on a dry pavement on tuesday 09/03/2019 around 6:40 pm and at a sudden moment the vsc light started flashing, warning sound came on, the car applied the brakes on its own hard until it fully stopped, and the engine shut off by itself, which almost got me into an accident. I contacted toyota and they told me that I have to pay for the dealer to get the car diagnosed for this safety issue, they transferred me to hudson toyota and they confirmed that I have to pay for it despite that I had my car to the dealer recently for two recalls and they checked the car and gave me a report that everything in the car was good. I have looked online and I found a lot of toyota sienna owners from this model complaining about it and youtube videos documenting it, this link shows a toyota sienna owner documenting on video the same problem (https://youtu.be/sy9a8shj0xg) which happened with him 20 times in the course of 90 minuets and the dealer could not find what was wrong with his car. This issue should be fixed under a recall by toyota because the car should not be able to apply the brake on its own randomly on the highway.

Check engine light, vsc light, traction control light. All 3 lights came on at same time. They say it's the gas cap, it's not the gas cap, they say to reset it, that doesn't work. I was driving home, nothing happened, the lights just came on. No warning sound, nothing to indicate there was a problem, my car seems to drive just fine, but the lights won't go off, and I have 3 kids that I take and pick up from school

One of the front engine oil seals failed while the vehicle was being driven in local traffic causing all of the engine oil to be pumped out onto the hot engine and exhaust emptying the crankcase in little more than 1 minute. I pulled into a gas station and opened the hood to investigate the smoke and smell of burning oil. The oil on the hot exhaust ignited and was quickly extinguished with the stations garden hose.

Today I noticed a smell but thought it was from the road construction. Later I noticed some liquid on the ground under my car. Later I started to drive and heard a terrible noise. I checked all my gauges and nothing looked wrong but the noise freaked me out. I immediately turned around and went home. Fortunately I had only gone a little ways down the street. While I drive my oil light flickered on then off. Once home my husband checked under the hood. When he turned the car on, oil was squirting from a hose everywhere. He checked under the car and oil was all over the bottom of the car. There was no more oil when he checked the oil stick.

While I was parking my toyota sienna the engine revved and the van took off like a rocket! My foot was on the brake and only the brake the entire time. I finally stopped after running uncontrollably into a building!

Our vehicle has 119,698 miles of wear. We had our vehicle serviced at a reputable dealer. While stationary, both a wheel stud (during tire rotation), and the oil pump tensioner bolt hole (during service) broke. Dealer told us excessive force was not used. I believe inferior metal used in manufacturing.
