2002 Toyota Sequoia Other / unspecified Problems

My vehicle has randomly been flashing vbs/abs/traction control lights. Sometimes nothing happens other than the flashing lights. Other times I’ll be driving & when going around a curve my car makes a beeping noise (sounds like the abs noise activated) & I’ll feel a pulsing under the brake & hear a grinding sound. It doesn’t allow me to brake effectively. Another time I was coming to a stop behind a car at a red light. It was clear as day, roads weren’t wet & I couldn’t have been going over 10 mph. When hitting my brakes, my steering wheel kind of glided back & forth for a sec and it felt like my tires “floated”in the same motion as wheel until it stopped.

While driving on a curved road, the vehicle made a grinding sound with flashing VSC off and Trac off lights, as it pulled violently to the right and almost ran off the road with my two children in the back seat.

While driving on a curved road, the vehicle made a grinding sound with flashing VSC off and Trac off lights, as it pulled violently to the right and almost ran off the road with my two children in the back seat. This was an extremely scary incident. I do understand that many first generation Sequoia owners have reported similar incidents and that there were no recalls, however, I think this is a serious enough issue that will cost innocent people their lives. I was able to pull a reading from the OBD2 and it says there is a fault with the Yaw Rate Sensor. Please help before this causes someone's death.

AT 247,000 PLUS MILES THE ABS SYSTEM WOULD SUDDENLY ENGAGE GOING AROUND SHARPER CURVES ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65+ MPH. RECENTLY THE ABS SYSTEM ENGAGED AT 32 MPH AROUND A SHARPER CURVE ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER IN AUGUST 2019. AS OF FEBRUARY 2020 IT IS STILL NOT FIXED, DESPITE SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY. BESIDES BEING NERVE WRACKING, IT IS A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY IN SNOW AND ICE, THAT SHOULD QUALIFY FOR A RECALL.

COMPLAINT - ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL WHILE DRIVING MY 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA WHILE TURNING ON CITY STREET & HIGHWAY I ENCOUNTERED TWO SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUES THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VSC AND TRACTION WARNING LIGHTS ABS & ENGINE LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED AS THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE LEFT/RIGHT. WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE MAKES A GRINDING SOUND AND PULLS VERY HARD TO THE LEFT/RIGHT. THE VEHICLE LOSES ACCELERATION AND FEELS LIKE THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING MECHANISM IS BEING ENGAGED. THE JERKING PULL RESULTED IN CROSSING MULTIPLE LANES OF THE HIGHWAY BEFORE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS REGAINED. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE DEATHS KNOWN ISSUES WITH OTHER SEQUOIAS. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A DRY PAVED ROAD. THE VSC AND TRACTION WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AS THE VEHICLE PULLED HARD TO THE RIGHT, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES DIFFICULT TO STEER, THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER, AND THE BRAKES INADVERTENTLY ENGAGE, MAKING A TERRIBLE GRINDING NOISE. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE, EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS RESTARTED. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V176000 (TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM) FOR THE 2003 TOYOTA SEQUOIA - THIS FAILURE IS MOST LIKELY RELATED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 35, MY TRUCK SUDDENLY PULLED TO THE RIGHT, STARTED TO SHAKE AND A BEEPING ALARM CAME ON, THE PICTURE OF THE VECHICLE SKIDDING ALSO LIT UP AND THE TRAC OFF AND VSC TRAC ALSO LIT UP AND STAYED ON. UPON PULLING OVER AND CUTTING THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTARTING THE VECHICLE, THE LIGHTS WHERE NO LONGER LIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY HAVE PLACED A MACHINE ON IT TO SEE IF IT REGISTARS ANYTHING, AND NOTHING SHOWS UP. THIS REALLY SCARED ME AND DAUGHTERS TRACK TEAM MATES, BECAUSE WE WHERE NOT EXPECTING THIS. THIS IS THE ONLY VECHICLE I HAVE AT THIS TIME TO DRIVE, DO TO MY HUSBAND BEING DEPLOYED. TOYOTA SAYS THAT THEY HAVE NO RECALLS, BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA & HAVE HAD ABOUT 10 INSTANCES SINCE THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST 2014 WHERE THE TRAC OFF, TRAC VSC, AND SLIP INDICATOR LIGHTS ALL COME ON WHILE THE TRUCK FEELS LIKE IT LOCKS UP AND A BEEPING NOISE OCCURS ALL WHILE DRIVING. TODAY AUGUST 21, 2014 WHILE MAKING A U-TURN MY TRUCK FAILED TO ACCELERATE FOR A FEW SECONDS (I REALLY HAD TO PUSH HARD ON THE GAS TO GET IT TO GO). I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THE SAME OR SIMILAR SITUATIONS ON VARIOUS SITES. APPARENTLY TOYOTA RECALLED THE 2003 MODELS FOR THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL BUT DID NOT INCLUDE THE 2002'S ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON MULTIPLE OTHER YEARS INCLUDING THE 2002. IT WOULD BE HORRIBLE IF SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE TOYOTA TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY. *TR

THE SKID CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON FOR NO REASON THE WHOLE CAR SHAKES AND THERE IS A THUMPING AND GRINDING NOISE FROM THE VEHICLE ALONG WITH THE BEEPING WARNING SOUND. IT HAPPENS AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS SOMETIMES WHEN BREAKING OR TURNING AND LOSING POWER. THIS LAST A FEW SECONDS THEN THE VSC LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VSC OFF LIGHT AND ALL IS OK WHILE LIGHTS ARE ON. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL AND AROUND A CURVE AT ABOUT 25MPH, MY 2002 SEQUOIA BEGAN BEEPING, MAKING A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. PROBLEM LASTED A FEW SECONDS. FORTUNATELY, I WAS IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH WIDE STREETS LESS THAN A MILE FROM MY HOME AND WAS ABLE TO GET HOME SAFELY. CONSIDERING THAT I WAS ON A CURVE AND IT WAS RAINING, I THOUGHT IT MAY BE A ONE TIME ISSUE WITH TRACTION CONTROL. I DROVE THE TRUCK FOR A FEW DAYS WITH NO ISSUES. YESTERDAY, MY WIFE WAS ROUNDING A CURVE AT ABOUT 50MPH ON A HIGHWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON DRY PAVEMENT AND THE TRUCK DID THE SAME THING. SHE NARROWLY AVOIDED A COLLISION AND WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER. SINCE THEN, THE TRUCK WILL INTERMITTENTLY BEEP AND GRIND FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS BEFORE THE VSC OFF LIGHT COMES ON. AS LONG AS THE LIGHT IS ON, INDICATING THE VSC IS DISENGAGED, THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS. PROBLEM SEEMS TO OCCUR MORE WHEN ROUNDING A CURVE AND BRAKING, BUT THAT IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE. IT HAS HAPPENED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, DURING BOTH BRAKING AND ACCELERATING, AND WHILE ON FLAT GROUND OR A HILL. THE PROBLEM ONLY LASTS A FEW SECONDS, BUT YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DURING THAT TIME. THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE, DECELERATE, BRAKE, OR PULL ON ITS OWN. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT LOSING CONTROL AND WRECKING, POTENTIALLY CAUSING INJURY TO MY WIFE AND KIDS OR ANOTHER DRIVER. UPON RESEARCHING, I FOUND RECALL NUMBER 10V176000, NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA09006. THIS RECALL WAS FOR 2003 SEQUOIAS WITH A VERY SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC) SYSTEM. WHY WAS THE 2002 MODEL NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL SINCE IT SEEMS TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE? *TR

THE VSC LIGHTS COME ON WHEN DRIVING, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL SEAL WAS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH AND SHOULD BE ON A RECALL, THE FRAME WAS ON RECALL AND REPLACED IN 2014, BUT THE REAR SEALS WERE RUSTED THRU AND TOYOTA AFTER COSTING ME THOUSANDS DOES NOT WANT TO COVER REAR SEALS WHY ? RIGHT AFTER THE FRAME WAS REPLACED AND THE TOYOTA DEALER IN DEERFIELD BEACH, FL SAID THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS ALSO WAY RUSTED OUT AND MAY BLOW THE SEALS, WELL THEY DID DURING A OIL CHANGE AND CHECK. IF TOYOTA KNEW OF THE EXTREME RUST ON THE FRAME THAT IT WAS ALSO ON THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AS CONFIRMED BY 3 DIFFERENT MECHANICS ONE BEING TOYOTA. TOYOTA WANTS ME TO PAY $2,000.00 TO FIX WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS. *TR

I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY VSC/TRAC OFF LIGHT SINCE WE BOUGHT IT. THE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AT SEEMINGLY RANDOM TIMES, STAY ON UNTIL I RESTARTED THE TRUCK - WE WERE TOLD IT WAS NOT SOMETHING WE NEEDED TO WORRY ABOUT BY THE DEALERSHIPS IN FORT WORTH (FORT WORTH TOYOTA). RECENTLY (2/2014 & 3/2014), AS I WAS COMING DOWN A HILL IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, APPROACHING A STOP SIGN, THERE WAS A GRINDING SOUND AND THE VEHICLE WOULD SEEM TO BE STOPPING INSTEAD OF ACCELERATING - AND THE VSC LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND STOPPED; I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG UNDER THE HOOD OR NEAR THE WHEEL WELLS, WHICH IS WHERE IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM. IT DID NOT CONTINUE AND DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 70 MPH. IT GRINDED FOR ABOUT A SECOND AND SLOWED ME DOWN ABRUPTLY, THEN STOPPED GRINDING. PRETTY HAIRY SITUATION, GOING 70 AND HAVING YOUR BRAKES SLOW YOU DOWN. I HAVE NOT HAD THE ISSUE LOOKED AT BY A TECHNICIAN YET AND AM NOT DRIVING THE TRUCK. IN RESEARCHING IT, I FOUND HUNDREDS OF ONLINE COMPLAINTS AND A RECALL FOR THE 2003 MODEL YEAR ON YOUR WEBSITE. [NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V176000 ] OBVIOUSLY, THE 2002 MODEL YEAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED, AS I AM SEEING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ON A DRY DAY, TRAVELING AT 65 MPH AND NOTICED THE TRAC CONTROL, ABS, AND BRAKE LIGHTS ALL ILLUMINATE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS INTERESTING. AS I DROVE AT STEADY 65MPH I NOTICED THE VEHICLE BECOME UNSTABLE, I COULD FEEL THE REAR END BEING VERY WISH-WASHY, TO THE POINT I HAD TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN TO ABOUT 55 MPH SO THAT IT WOULD FEEL MORE STABLE. I DRIVE THIS SAME STRETCH OF FREEWAY OFTEN AND HAVE NEVER HAD THE TRUCK ACT LIKE THIS UNTIL THE LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY MECHANIC, THEY PERFORMED SOME DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND DID SOME INVESTIGATING AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG, NO TRIPPED CODES OR ANYTHING ELSE POINTING TO SOMETHING NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. WHILE THEY WORKED ON THE VEHICLE THEY HAD AT SOME POINT DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY, RESETTING THE COMPUTER, THIS SEEMED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM UNTIL LAST WEEK, 9/23/2013 WHEN THE LIGHTS SAME LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THIS SECOND TIME I NEVER NOTICED THE REAR-END BEING SLIPPERY AS I DID IN THE FIRST CASE. THANK GOODNESS. I WAS ON A LONG TRIP 600 MILES FROM HOME. I WORRIED THAT WHEN THESE LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED THAT IF I'M REQUIRED TO DO A QUICK STOP OR MANEUVER TO AVOID SOMETHING I MAY END UP IN A REALLY BAD SITUATION. BUT WITH THE LIGHTS BEING ILLUMINATED TWICE IN A YEAR SPAN I'M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT THIS COULD BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM. I'M DON'T LIKE THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF WHEN THE LIGHTS ILLUMINATE. *TR

A WEEK PRIOR MY VSC TRAC AND VSC OFF LIGHTS CAME ON BUT NOTHING ELSE OCCURRED. NOW OUT OF NOWHERE MY VEHICLE WILL MAKE AN AUDIBLE SOUND AND START RUMBLING AND PULLING TO THE RIGHT AND SLOWING BUT WON'T ALLOW ME TO BRAKE. THIS CAN LAST ANYWHERE FROM 10 SECONDS TO 30 SECONDS. SOMETIMES THE PICTURE OF THE CAR WITH THE SKID MARKS WILL LIGHT UP (EVEN ON DRY ROADS) OTHER TIMES THE ABS LIGHT WILL COME ON. ONCE THE BEEPING AND VIBRATIONS STOP, THE VSC TRAC AND VSC OFF LIGHTS REMAIN ON UNTIL I TURN THE CAR OFF. I DRIVE 30 MILES EACH WAY TO WORK DAILY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY AS I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TRIGGERS THE EPISODES. *TR

I HAD THEM DISABLE IT SO THAT IT COULD BE DRIVEN WITHOUT THE DANGER OF A WHEEL LOCKING UP ON THE HIGHWAY. IT IS STILL DISABLED, WITH DASH SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS ON DURING OPERATION. *TR
