Problems with 2003 Toyota Sequoia ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL

Trac off vsc trac off lights illuminate. seems to be faulty sensor. brake light periodically comes on with no issue with brakes. brakes have been replaced and everything checked. on 2 occasions when the brake light is on, the antiskid control activates when the car is going less than 30 mph slowing down for a turn. the car is hard to control and shakes. after the car is turned off for awhile the brake light does not illuminate the next time you drive but will come back on randomly. trac off and vsc trac lights illuminate are on.

My 2003 sequoia got vsc off, vsc trac, and brake indications in the cockpit again since the problem was fixed by replacing the sensors at dealer few years ago. very disappointing. i don't know if toyota has ever since recall in 2010.

Vsc, check engine, brake lights keep coming on. no traction control when button pushed. driving highway speed traction control beeps when not even appropriate. have had several times trying to brake, no brakes light comes on almost crashed due to no brakes! i have researched recall my vin# not listed. this is ridiculous! unsafe! toyota needs to recall more vehicles. not a happy toyota consumer!

Vsc and abs lights have been on and stability control is off. this has been in this state for several years and i have had several unsuccessful interactions with toyota regarding repairing under the recall. my car was manufactured in may. the recall only covers cars manufactured through april. having worked in a toyota plant for 5 years, i know that it is very possible that the defective parts could be in the plant several months past april. yesterday, my braking system was not operating properly. the abs was activating randomly, when driving at slow and highway speeds, and the car was not reacting normally to the accelerator pedal.. i took the car to a mechanicm. the troubleshooting codes had to due with the stability control computer.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 toyota sequoia. while driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle inadvertently pulled to the left. in addition, the traction control and stability control warning indicators illuminated during the failure. the vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road and the engine was turned off. the vehicle was restarted and driven to the contact's residence. the contact mentioned that the warning indicators were not illuminated when the vehicle was restarted. the dealer (toyota of the shoals, s 5100, us-43, tuscumbia, al 35674) informed the contact that he would be responsible for the diagnostic fees. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 10v176000 (electronic stability control, traction control), but the vin was not included in the recall. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 163,000.

So many problems with this vehicle, and a major problem not only with this vehicle but other years and models as well the paint bubbling and coming off the vehicle especially hood area and top of vehicle, has to be bad paint toyota is using

The trac light and vsc light are on which caused the check engine light to come on. i have had to replace the brakes and rotors at least every 3 months since this has occurred. i was driving one day and the truck somewhat decelerated to almost an sudden stop and those two above light engaged as well as the check engine light. these lights have been on since july 2017. i have called the toyato recall center and there are no recalls listed for this vehicle's vin number. the toyato dealdhip wants to charge me 114.00 for diagnostic testing which right now i can not afford. i am purchasing this vehicle used and i am still making payments on it on and every time i have brakes and rotors replaced it's abot $365.00 a pop. please advise. i have researched this issue and found it a very come defect on this particular vehicle and it needs to be around before an accident occurs and costs someone their life or others their lives.

I went outside and turned the car on and noticed that the abs, vsc off, and vsc trac dashboard lights came on and did not turn off. i drove the vehicle around the block and the lights remained on. this is a known manufacturer defect with the computer that controls the abs / vsc trac system on the 2003 sequoia. i have had the computer modules replaced for this issue before and 60,000 miles later the same parts have gone out again. it is unsafe to drive an suv with the vehicle skid control and abs systems not functioning.

Skid control ecu issue...my 2003 recently started having a failure in the ecu and causing the vehicle's brakes to go into abs mode randomly during acceleration and not stop properly when applying the brakes. the brake light, vsc off and trac off all go off and the brakes go out and almost cause me to wreck. i have read online that this has been an on-going issue with this vehicle, and i'm curious what toyota is doing or not doing to fix this. i had the ecu recall "software upgrade" back in 2011. they only warrantied the work for 1 year, well now my computer is failing and replacement is $1500. this is a formal complaint because it seems that i could have had a replacement ecu years ago and i wasn't informed

My vsc off and vsc trac lights popped on simultaneously with my check engine light, while traveling on straight, paved highway at about 55 mph, for no apparent reason. i was not braking when all lights suddenly appeared. i was cruising comfortably at highway speeds on straight, flat, paved road. i have read countless other complaints filed by other toyota owners with the exact problem. my mechanic explained this can be very hazardous as this system cannot be disabled. so, these lights may pop on and off, and the vsc system may spontaneously engage without my knowledge or control, and this can greatly affect acceleration and cause accidents. i haven't done anything operationally to cause these lights to come on and i feel toyota should accept responsibility for this defect which could have very strong safety implications.

I just had to spend over 1,200 to have this repaired as my local toyota dealership insisted it was routine ear and tear. my breaks would not work, and i just had new ones put on 09/2015, and the vsp light kept coming on and off. the car jumps, and something has not been right. i almost hit someone and had to use the emergency break to stop!

Hello, i have a 2003 toyota sequioa where the engine light and the vcs lights are both on. i saw on your page some really helpful information on this make/model recall. i've reached out to toyota customer service because there was a recall on this make/model but they said that my vin number was not part of that recall, even though it's having the same issues?? the recall was that toyota had to replace the skid control engine control unit (ecu) and upgrade program logic in its vehicle stability control (vcs) system. i took my vehicle in to get it inspected and they provided me with 3 codes: c1203 - engine control system communication circuit malfunction c1360 - vehicle skid control master pressure sensor malfunction p0420 - catalyst system efficiency below threshold these are all system issues. can you help me?

While i was driving at an approximate speed of 40 mph, i noticed my brake, trac off, vsc trac, engine light all came on at once. i noticed that braking was not as responsive (increased braking distance; abs doesn't seem to be engaging) and when speeding to over 50 mph, the vehicle feels as if it is slowing itself down. it is currently an expected heavy rainfall season where i am and having the vehicle in this state is very dangerous especially when the brakes are not working effectively or when it starts to slow itself down suddenly. after shutting the vehicle down and restarting it after about 2 hours, the lights mentioned are still illuminated except the brake light. after reading all the other similar complaints, i am surprised toyota is not paying for all aspects of this defect associated with the vehicle and not driver misuse.

I have a notice for revision "safety recall dsf". the recall says i need to bring in for air bag replacment for passanger front seats. so august 31,2015 i took my sequoia to toyota of knoxville tn. off of parkside dr. it was looked over and i was told they needed to order parts and i would be called for the repairs once the parts came in to schedule an appointment. it is now may 23,2016 and i have not been contacted for repairs to be completed. also the trac control button stopped working and lights on the dash. was there a recal for this also?

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 toyota sequoia. while reducing speed, the traction stability control sensor illuminated and the vehicle suddenly failed to accelerate. after stopping the vehicle and restarting the engine, the vehicle operated normally. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 10v176000 (electronic stability control). the contact stated that the vehicle experienced the same failure listed in the recall. the failure mileage was 98,000.
