VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
SKID CONTROL ECU ISSUES. I HAVE READ ENOUGH ABOUT THIS THAT IT IS UNREAL THAT A RECALL FOR THE 2004 SEQOUIA HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. WHY FOR THE 2003 WITH SAME ISSUE BUT NOT '04? WHY ISN'T TOYOTA BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE?

JULY 2015 I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED THE INFORMATION # X2 ONLY TO BE TOLD THIS RECALL WILL BE MANAGED BY ZONES. THERE IS NO PLAN FOR MY ZONE APPARENTLY AND NO ONE AT TOYOTA CAN TELL ME WHAT ZONE I AM IN AND WHEN THAT ZONE WILL RECEIVE ATTENTION. IN ADDITION, ALTHOUGH THEY OFFER YOU AN ALTERNATIVE VEHICLE THEY DO NOT OFFER YOU A COMPARABLE VEHICLE. I NOW HAVE A VEHICLE THAT I CAN'T FIT EVEYONE IN, NO PLAN TO FIX MY VEHICLE AND NO WORKABLE REPLACEMENT VEHICLE. TO ADD TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS THERE IS NO GUARANTEE BY VEHICLE WILL GET FIXED WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR, MUCH LESS BE AVAILABLE AND SAFE FOR THE WINTER MONTHS WHEN ICE AND SNOW IN MN OFTEN REQUIRE A 4 WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE FOR THE 50 MILE ROUND TRIP TO WORK.

OUR SITUATION IS VIRTUALLY THE SAME AS MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS IN YOUR SYSTEM. NAMELY THAT TOYOTA HAD OUR DEALER APPLY UNDERCOAT TO THE FRAME OF OUR 2004 SEQUOIA IN JULY OF 2013. ON SEPT. 5 THIS YEAR WENT TO THE DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION AND AFTER WAITING A FEW HOURS WAS INFORMED THEY DID NOT PERFORM THE SERVICE AS THE FRAME WAS SO BAD. KNOWING THAT A NEIGHBOR HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND TOYOTA BOUGHT IT BACK I ASKED ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD "THAT PROGRAM WAS OVER" THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND UPON CALLING TOYOTA USA WAS TOLD THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO THIS ON THE NHTS WEBSITE. WHY ISN'T ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT THIS?

I HAVE HAD A SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. FIRST NOTIFICATION CAME IN JULY. 6-7 WEEKS LATER STILL WAITING. CONTACTED TOYOTA DIRECTLY VIA THE NUMBER PROVIDED. THEIR ONLY COMMENT IS THAT THEY HAVE DONE THEIR PART BY ALERTING ME TO THE SAFETY ISSUE AND WHEN THE "PART COMES THE PART COMES." THEY HAD NO CONCERN FOR THE FACT THAT THIS MEANS I HAVE TO DRIVE TWO VEHICLES TO GET MY FAMILY ANYWHERE, ALTHOUGH THEY DID ENCOURAGE ME TO GO RENT A VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN. REALLY? AN INDEFINITE RENTAL COST FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT? I THINK TOYOTAS ARE GREAT BECAUSE THEY LAST AND LAST, HOWEVER I THINK TOYOTA CORP IS THE WORST WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH THINGS THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR.

MY 2004 TOYOTA SEQUOIA WAS THE SUBJECT OF A LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN, NO. TC-13-013, FOR ABNORMAL FRAME CORROSION. A TOYOTA DEALER APPLIED A CORROSION RESISTANT COMPOUND (CRC) TO THE FRAME AND UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ON MARCH 27, 2014. I HAD MY CAR SERVICED IN AUGUST 2015 AND DISCOVERED THAT LARGE PARTS OF THE FRAME ARE SIGNIFICANTLY CORRODED, WITH MUCH OF THE CRC NO LONGER PRESENT ON THE FRAME. TOYOTA RESPONDED TO MY COMPLAINT ON AUGUST 21, 2015 BY STATING THAT THE WARRANTY FOR THE CRC IS ONE YEAR AND THAT IT WOULD NOT AUTHORIZE AN INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE, REAPPLICATION OF THE CRC OR REPLACEMENT OF THE FRAME. THE FRAME CORROSION IS DOCUMENTED IN PHOTOGRAPHS.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY MY BRAKES LIGHT WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD WOULD COME ON AND WOULD ONLY TURN OFF THE LIGHT IF I TURN OFF THE ENGINE. MANY TIMES ON STREET SPEED (10-45 MPH) IF THE VSC,TRACK OFF AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AT THE SAME TIME,THE CAR WILL LOOSE POWER ON THE BRAKES AND WILL HAVE A GRINDING AND VIBRATING NOISE. I WENT TO A TOYOTA DEALER AND TOLD ME BRING THE CAR WHEN IT HAPPEN AGAIN SO THEY COULD DO A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. WHY WAIT FOR SOMETHING SERIOUS TO HAPPENED BEFORE THEY COULD CHECK MY CAR? *TR
