TAKATA RECALL, THE TIME THAT IT IS TAKING TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM AND THE SOLUTION TOYOTA HAS IS NOT SUFFICIENT. 1 PAY FOR THE AIRBAGS AND SUBMIT A REIMBURSEMENTS CLAIM, 2 DON'T USE THE PASSENGER SEAT. STATING THAT THEY ARE UP TO 2002 FOR THIS MODEL IS A GREAT INCONVENIENCE WHEN PURCHASING A VEHICLE FOR ITS SUPPOSED SAFETY FEATURES.

2006 TOYOTA SEQUOIA WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW.IN 2015 FRAME HAS LOTS OF RUST. WHEN WE WENT FOR SERVICING, TOYOTA DEALER SAID, NOT TO WASTE ANY MONEY FOR FLUID EXCHANGES, LIKE POWER STEERING FLUID, TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE, BECAUSE CAR MAY NOT PASS INSPECTION, BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE FRAME RUST. WE ARE SCARED TO DRIVE, WHETHER SPARE TIRE, REAR BRAKES FAILING, OTHER COMPONENTS FALLING OFF CAUSING DAMAGE TO CAR AND PEOPLE DRIVING BEHIND . WE SEE SEQUOIAS FROM 2000 TO 2004 ARE RECALLED FOR NEW FRAME INSTALLATION BECAUSE OF RUST PROBLEMS. WE SINCERELY HOPE, TOYOTA WILL RECALL 2006 SEQUOIAS ALSO. WE BELIEVED IN TOYOTA REPUTATION, FOR QUALITY AND RELIABILITY. WE ARE REALLY VERY DISAPPOINTED. MY FAMILY HAS 3 TOYOTAS AND EXPECTING TO BUY 2 MORE SOON. WE NEVER EXPECTED, SEQUOIAS ARE SO BAD , WHERE LIFE ITSELF IS IN DANGER DRIVING THEM. WE WISH TOYOTA WILL RECALL SEQUOIAS FOR FRAME REPLACEMENT. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VSC OFF LIGHT, AND VSC TRAC LIGHT ALL CAME ON AT ONCE, AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING, AND I EXPERIENCED A DRAMATIC DECREASE IN VEHICLE POWER. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME NOTICING A DRASTIC CHANGE IN ACCELERATION AS THE SEQUOIA WOULD NOT ACCELERATE NORMALLY; IT WOULD ACCELERATE AT A SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED RATE, TOPPING OUT AT 35MPH ON THE FLATS AND 16 MPH ON AN INCLINE, IN ADDITION, DURING START UP, THE ENGINE MAKES A HIGH-PITCH VACUUM NOISE, WHICH DROPS OFF AND NORMAL ENGINE SOUND RETURNS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR DIAGNOSED; ERROR CODES P2440, P441 AND P444 ARE ALL PRESENT INDICATING A FAILURE OF THE AIR INJECTION PUMP. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON TOYOTA SEQUOIAS AND TUNDRAS; HOWEVER, TOYOTA HAS ONLY ACKNOWLEDGED IT ON THE 07-10 SEQUOIA BY EXTENDING THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS AND 150,000K MILES FOR THIS PART. IT IS CLEAR FROM OTHER POSTS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND OTHERS THAT THIS PROBLEM ALSO EXISTS WITH THE 2004-07 SEQUOIAS AS WELL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED, OR WORSE YET KILLED.

AIR BAGS, SUSPENSION
MY VEHICLE IS THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN ARIZONA A FEW YEARS AGO, AND I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO, CA. I HAVE A VACATION HOME IN BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR, MEXICO. I KEEP THE TOYOTA SEQUOIA AT THAT HOME IN MEXICO, ABOUT 900 MILES FROM CALIFORNIA. THERE IS A TOYOTA DEALER IN SAN JOSE DEL CABO WHO COULD MAKE THE REPAIR. I DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE 1800 MILES ROUND TRIP TO THE USA IN ORDER TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE IN THE USA. TOYOTA HAS REFUSED TO ALLOW ITS DEALER IN SAN JOSE DEL CABO TO MAKE THE REPAIR. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOU TO REQUIRE TOYOTA TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE PURCHASED IN THE UNITED STATES BY A U.S. CITIZEN IN MEXICO.
