Re: File a complaint to NHSTA regarding VSC/ABS Skid control ECU failure
We have a 2001 ltd 2wd sequioa. At appx 85k miles last summer, we lost all power and vsc came on. We were on vacation in a remote location. We called dealer who recommended disconnecting battery cables, allowing reset,and then restarting. This worked and allowed us to continue vacation. We thought this was an isolated event and wrote it off with no additional problems until three months later. At that time we were in Atlanta on 70 MPH highway when power went out. Fortunately we were able to coast to exit ramp and were not killed. Car reset and all was okay. We went to dealer who ran diagnostics and said all was okay. Then two day ago, we lost power in Atlanta rush hour traffic and were lucky to not have an accident. We now have lost faith in this vehicle and are surprised that the dealer has not taken our problems more seriously as this seems like such a liability. I really do not want to have to fork out money for a new car as we had planned to drive this car for the life of it and hoped to get at least 200k. If dealer can not solve this, I will never buy another toyota. This is very frustrating and we don't know where to turn-maybe another dealership?
