From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at …

We have an issue with our Cosco Mightyfit LX Convertible Car Seat that we purchased in 2021 from Walmart. About 5 times now, when we have gone to get our child out of the seat, one of the straps has disconnected by itself from the rear buckle loop holder. The first time it happened we thought it may be a fluke, but given it has happened now about 5 times we are concerned about the continued use of this car seat and the safety it would provide in the case of a crash. We are concerned that if involved in a crash, one side (or both) of the chest straps would somehow come undone and our child would not be secured in his seat. Once we re-connect the strap to the buckle/loop on the back side of the car seat, it seems to be okay again for a little bit, but there is no notice or appearance of issues until some time later we go to unbuckle him and realize one strap just pulls out of the back of the seat. Additionally, the issue seems to occur regardless of installation method. It has occurred with both the latch system and the vehicle's seat belt. Issue seems to be regardless of seat installation location as we have had it happen in both the 2nd and 3rd rows. Vehicle seems to not play a factor as well. To answer the suggested questions very specifically: -What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The harness. Specifically, part of the 5-point harness that is the shoulder strap (left side usually) -How was the child’s safety put

After several years of fighting problems with, after braking to a brief stop, the loss of power/abs grinding when accelerating and turning right, now the ABS is completely dysfunctional. Both TRC lights will turn on and usually the parking brake, and when braking at speeds less than 10mph the abs will activate and prevent bring the truck to a stop without pumping them, on dry pavement. When the ABS light turns on, then braking is possible, but all pressure is gone from brake booster and brakes sound like they're grinding, not like the sound of abs engaging. Very dangerous to drive in snow as front brakes work but drive axle doesn't disengage when the brake pedal is depressed. Regular mechanic won't engage with diagnosing issues as he feels the problem is partly computer malfunction and Toyota won't allow for used part mismatching. ABS/ECU is failed.

The contact owned a 2005 Toyota Sequoia. The contact stated that the vehicle had been taken to the dealer on August 7th, 2023, where a protective chemical coating was sprayed on the sub frame. The contact stated that after driving, he noticed that power steering fluid was leaking from the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact’s brother who is an independent mechanic, informed him about the source of the leak and noticed there was rust on the puncher frame. The vehicle was towed to the same local dealer, where it was placed on the lift, and it was diagnosed that the frame had rusted and was damaged beyond repair. The mechanic was able to peel and remove rust while using a screwdriver. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 198,000.

Took the suv for an oil change and was brought to my attention that the frame of suv, chassis, is rusted and can break any moment. I took it to Toyota 2 years ago for the recall, and they said it was fine.

The contact owns a 2005 Toyota Sequoia. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH the rear of the vehicle lowered and the rear of the vehicle started to bounce, and the suspension warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the dealer stated that the suspension system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 100,000. The VIN was not available.

The frame is damage by the weather.

2005 Sequoia class action, court ordered frame inspection & either repair or frame replacement. Never received notice of class action. Received letter stating vehicle needed to be inspected. Took to Victory Toyota, Canton, MI on Jan 5, 2018. Was told passed inspection & frame needed seal coating, did not have product. Vehicle was taken in multiple times, never completed the process. On May 6, 2019 the vehicle was taken to this dealership, a rental vehicle was provided and they did nothing and on May 21, 2019, noted the vehicle didn’t pass inspection & the campaign had expired! Per service history report from another dealership, on May 21, (the 15th day they had they had vehicle in their possession), they noted the frame did not pass inspection, also noted the repair timeline expired and they did nothing; however, they were paid to do the job they never did. The frame should of been replaced. I have photos from 2016 showing holes in the frame. I took vehicle to two other dealerships, one inspected in fall 2019 & sent 3 photos to Toyota showing the frame rusted holes but stated once Toyota makes a decision, the never change their mind. Second local dealership printed detailed Toyota repair history report showing Victory stated the vehicle did not pass inspection and that the timeline expired on the 16th day they had the vehicle!! The vehicle interior & exterior is in excellent condition but Toyota knowing refused to replace many of the frames, even though they knew the manufact

Frame deterioration has rendered the rear torque arm incapable resulting in dynamic misalignment of the rear axle. Under acceleration the vehicle veers into oncoming traffic and under deceleration it veers towards the road ditch as the axle shifts about beneath the vehicle.

I tried to make apointments to local dealers they set up appointments and than don’t do nothing about it they said the don’t have any certified tech to do the job so I left with this mess not knowing when my ride is going to give. Out on me I got about 319000 miles Toyota should be proud and thank me for keeping my ride up to date I do my part to have it running good but they not doing there part to help me with these recalls please help me out.

Malfunction indicator lights - Check engine, VSC off and TRAC off. The vehicle goes into limp mode. The issue is both a mechanical and engineering defect causing the override of the entire AIP system. Parts affected are Air injection pumps, Air switching valves, Air pump inlets/covers, Gaskets/connectors/clamps and Speed sensors.

Frame Rust

IN OCTOBER OF 2020, I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY AIRBAG RECALLS AT MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER (LIA TOYOTA OF COLONIE). MY APPOINTMENT WAS ON OCTOBER 22, 2020. AFTER DEVOTING A DAY TO THIS, I WAS DISMAYED TO LEARN THAT MY VEHICLE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PARTS WERE BACKORDERED. THEY SAID THEY WOULD LET ME KNOW WHEN THE PARTS WERE IN. SEVERAL WEEKS WENT BY, AND I HEARD NOTHING. THEN, I GET A CRYPTIC MESSAGE FROM SOMEONE IN THEIR PARTS DEPARTMENT, AND GAVE ME A NUMBER TO CALL BACK. WHEN I CALLED THE NUMBER, A MAN ANSWERED WHO SAID IT WAS NOT LIA TOYOTA, AND THAT HE'D BEEN GETTING A LOT OF CALLS FROM PEOPLE THINKING THEY WERE CALLING LIA TOYOTA. (THE DEALERSHIP DID PICK UP WHEN I CALLED THE NUMBER, AND IT WAS WHEN I ENTERED THE CHOICE TO SPEAK WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THE PHONE SYSTEM THEN TRANSFERRED ME TO SOME INDIVIDUAL'S MOBILE PHONE!) SO, I THEN HAD TO TRY A DIFFERENT ROUTE TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP AND FIND OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING. THIS LED TO SEVERAL CALLS WHERE NO ONE REALLY KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I FINALLY GOT MY ORIGINAL SERVICE MANAGER TO RESEARCH THE SITUATION, AND HE SAID THE PARTS WERE STILL ON BACK ORDER. FAST FORWARD TO DECEMBER 15, 2020, AND I TEXTED THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO INFORMED ME THAT 1 PART WAS IN, BUT ANOTHER WAS STILL BACKORDERED. I THEN TEXTED THEM TODAY (JAN 29) AND THEY SAID THE PARTS WERE NOW IN. SO I AM FAIRLY CERTAIN THAT NO ONE WAS EVER GOING TO FOLLOW UP WITH ME TO NOTIFY ME OF THIS. IT'S BEEN 3.5 MONTHS, AND CUSTOMERS' SA

THESE VEHICLES HAVE A WELL KNOWN FRAME RUST ISSUE. IN MARCH OF 2018, TOYOTA DEEMED THIS FRAME SAFE AFTER AN INSPECTION AND APPLIED AN UNDERCOATING TO COVER UP THE RUST. A YEAR LATER THE UNDERCOATING BEGAN TO FLAKE OFF, REVEALING THE SEVERE RUST UNDERNEATH. LAST WEEK, NOT EVEN THREE YEARS LATER, WE WERE MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND FELT A POP UNDERNEATH. THE PASSENGER SIDE SWAY BAR MOUNT BROKE LOOSE FROM THE FRAME, AND THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TOLD US THE FRAME IS SO ROTTED THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO WELD IT BACK TO. OTHER THAN THE FRAME ROT, THE VEHICLE RUNS, LOOKS, AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. THIS FRAME, AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS, SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED INSTEAD OF UNDERCOATED. THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND SERVICE CAMPAIGN ARE OVER, BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD BE REVISITED, AS THERE ARE STILL MANY INSTANCES OF THIS HAPPENING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE FRAME CORRODED AND THE SUSPENSION ARMS THAT HOLDS THE FRAME SPRINGS WERE ALSO CORRODED. THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, WHEN THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMALLY LOUD SOUND. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED FOR THE CORROSION REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 240,000.

LABEL FOR DOT COMPLIANT VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR OF THE VEHICLE. TRYING TO IMPORT VEHICLE INTO THE US FROM MX

ON 1/31/20 I TOOK POSSESSION OF 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA, VIN [XXX] AND ON 2/3/20 I REGISTERED THE VEHICLE IN THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS. THE PREVIOUS OWNER [XXX] HAD ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON NOVEMBER 27, 2007 WITH 48,836 MILES. [XXX]. TOLD ME THAT TOYOTA HAD INSPECTED THE FRAME AND COATED IT. ON 2/4/20 I VISITED TOYOTA OF DARTMOUTH IN NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA 02747 FOR SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE TWO AIR BAG RECALLS ADDRESSED. UPON THEIR REVIEW OF THE VEHICLE'S TOYOTA SERVICE RECORD THEY INFORMED ME THAT NO RECORD REGARDING THE FRAME OR FRAME COATING EXISTS. ON 2/11/20 TOYOTA DARTMOUTH TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE TWO AIR BAG RECALLS AND DURING THAT TIME I HAD ASKED FOR AN OPINION OF THE FRAME. THEY COMPLETED THE AIR BAG RECALLS AND TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO LIFT THE VEHICLE. SEVERE ROT HOLES ON THE DRIVER SIDE REAR OF FRAME WHERE DRAG LINK CONNECTS TO FRAME. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE.? THEY RECOMMENDED I CALL TOYOTA BECAUSE THE FRAME PROGRAM HAD EXPIRED BUT SAID THAT TOYOTA MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP. I CALLED TOYOTA THAT AFTERNOON AND WAS TOLD A CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AGENT WOULD CALL ME BACK THE FOLLOWING DAY. ON 2/12/20 A TOYOTA AGENT CALLED ME AND EXPLAINED THAT BECAUSE THE FRAME PROGRAM HAD EXPIRED IN JANUARY 2019 THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT TOYOTA COULD DO. I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE HIGHER UP WHO COULD REVIEW THE CASE. I WAS CONNECTED WITH [XXX], OPERATIONS SUPERVISOR OF CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AT THE TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS IN PLANO, TX. [XXX] ALSO EXPLAINED THAT BECAUSE THE FR

AIRBAG RECALL

BRAKE, VSC TRAC, TRAC OFF, AND ABS LIGHTS ALL COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AND STAY ON UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ACCORDING TO THE FORUMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60-65 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE BRAKES FAILED TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO USE THE PARKING BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PART WAS NO LONGER BEING MANUFACTURED. HUTCHINSON TOYOTA OF ALBANY (LOCATED AT 2865 LEDO RD, ALBANY, GA 31707, (229) 436-7751) WAS CONTACTED BY PHONE AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 242,000.

WHEN BACKING UP OR SOMETIMES SLOWING DOWN MOVING FORWARD THE VCS LIGHTS ALL COME ON AND THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE (QUICKLY AND WITH A GRINDING SOUND) AND THE CAR MOVES TO THE RIGHT AND STOPS ABRUPTLY.

THE RECALL WARRANTY EXPIRED ON THIS VEHICLE ON JANUARY 31, 2017. I FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THIS DEFECT WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER ISSUE I WAS EXPERIENCING. THE DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME THAT THE RECALL WAS FOR RUSTING OF THE VEHICLE'S CHASSIS AND IS DANGEROUS FOR ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. I USUALLY RECEIVE NOTICES, AS I DID FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL, HOWEVER, I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE WITH REGARD TO THE RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE CHASSIS. I HAVE KEPT THE SAME ADDRESS FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. I ATTEMPTED TO CALL TOYOTA AND TOYOTA TOLD ME I SHOULD HAVE VISUALLY NOTICED THE DEFECT. THE DEFECT IS THE RUST UNDERNEATH MY CAR, WHICH IS NOT OPEN AND OBVIOUS. THIS WAS ALSO ADMITTED BY THE AGENT/SUPERVISOR. TOYOTA FAILED TO EVEN OFFER 50% COVERAGE ON THIS RECALL. HOW CAN A CAR COMPANY ALLOW ITS CUSTOMERS TO CONTINUE DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH SUCH A DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT I NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF.

ONE MORNING AROUND 11/20/2018, I NOTICED MY WINDOW SHIELD WAS CRACKED IN THE UPPER RIGHT HAND SIDE. PASSENGERS SIDE. IT ALSO DEVELOPED STRANGE NOISES, RATTLING, IN THE DASHBOARD. I HAD HAD THE EVAPORATOR REPLACED, SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC TO CHECK THE NOISE OUT. HE ADVISED THAT AFTER INSPECTION HE NOTICED THE WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED AND LOOSE. IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EVAPORATOR INSTALLATION. SO I NOW HAVE A CRACKED AND LOOSE WINDSHIELD, WITH NO ACCIDENT OR CRASH, NO ROCK HIT MY WINSHIELD. SO I SUSPECT IT WAS A BADLY INSTALLED WINDSHIEL. I NOTICED THIS WINSHIELD ONE MORNING WHILE STILL IN THE DRIVEWAY.

ENGINE KNOCKING SOUND OR TICKLING NOISE.I WENT TO THE DEALER TO DIAGNOSIS WHAT IS WRONG, BUT THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT. THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE ENGINE QUOTING $9,800 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 52,000 MILES ON IT, IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR IS NOT WORTH THAT MUCH, AS I WOULD BE SPENDING ON IT. LOOKING ONLINE THERE ARE OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND SOME HAVE SAID TOYOTA HAS REPLACED THEIR ENGINE. I CONTACTED THE EXECUTIVE OFFICE AND THEY DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE, SEEMS LIKE THEY DO NOT WANT TO STAND BEHIND THEIR CUSTOMERS WHEN PROBLEMS ARISE UNTIL IT BECOMES A BIGGER ISSUE. I AM JUST LETTING YOU GUYS KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM, I AM NOT SURE IF YOU CAN DO ANYTHING, BUT I WANT TO INVOLVE MEDIA AND OTHERS WITH THIS PROBLEM. IT IS NOT FAIR TO SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON A CAR JUST FOR THE ENGINE TO GO OUT AT 52,000 MILES. THERE HAS TO BE SOME KIND OF MANUFACURE DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SLOW DOWN AND AN UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AS IF THE SKID CONTROL WAS ACTIVATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,735. *TT *TR

TOYOTA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR REPAIRS RELATED TO ILLUMINATION OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT) DUE TO MOISTURE/WATER IN THE AIR INJECTION PUMPS AND/OR AIR SWITCHING VALVES FOR SELECT SEQUOIA TRUCKS. IT SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO EXTEND IT TO ALL SEQUOIA TRUCKS AS IT CLEARLY RECOGNIZES THIS PUMP AND VALVE ASSEMBLY IS DEFECTIVE IN THIS MODEL. THE COVERAGE EXTENDS FOR THE LESSER OF 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES BUT INSTEAD SHOULD BE FOR THE GREATER OF THE TWO. THIS REPAIR COSTS $4000 AND TYPICALLY OCCURS WHEN THE TRUCK VALUE IS NEAR $7000. MY TRUCK IS EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE ABOVE 50 MPH WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS.

I HAVE FIXED THE REAR DOOR LATCH ABOUT A HALF DOZEN TIMES IN THE PAST 2 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE. EACH TIME THE FIX LASTS ABOUT 2 TO 3 WEEKS. THEN THE REAR DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD SHOULD THE BACK DOOR BE NECESSARY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY. THE PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN BY TOYOTA, YET THEY REFUSE TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT SOLUTION.

RUST DEVELOPED ON REAR DRIVER SIDE UNDER FENDER.REAR WINDOW GLASS MALFUNCTIONED AND WOULD NOT COME DOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. ALSO, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE MAKING LEFT AND RIGHT TURNS AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. INITIALLY, THE DEALER (PRINCIPLE TOYOTA, 7370 WINCHESTER RD, MEMPHIS, TN 38125, (877) 217-4003) WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE, SO IT CONTINUED TO PROGRESS AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS REMAINED ILLUMINATED, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000. *TT *TR

I GET CONSTANT WARNING LIGHTS FOR BRAKE, VSC AND TRAC. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE SEQUOIA. IT SHUTS DOWN THOSE SAFETY FEATURES.

WAS IN WRECK AND ROLLED OVER MULTIPLE YIMES AND WENT THRU WINDSHIELD ENDED UP IN HOSPSITAL WITH BRAIN INJURY

I OWN A 2005 SEQUOIA 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIMITED EDITION . I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA CORPORATION REGARDING THE RUSTING FRAME RECALL CAMPAIGN ON NOVEMBER 3,2017 AND SCHEDULED A SERVICE APT TO HAVE MY FRAME INSPECTED AND WAS TOLD THE INSPECTION TAKES APPROX. 2 HOURS . WITHIN 30 MINUTES MY TRUCK WAS "READY " MEANING THE INSPECTION WAS COMPLETE. I ASKED THE SERVICE WRITER OF THE OUTCOME AND WAS TOLD THE FRAME WAS GOOD. NOTHING WAS WRITTEN IN MY SERVICE ORDER THAT WAS HANDED TO ME SIGN REGARDING FINDINGS, PERFORATION OR STATUS OF THE INSPECTION RESULTS, OR THAT THE INSPECTION ACTUALLY TOOK PLACE. THE SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME VERBALLY THAT ANOTHER SERVICE WRITER WOULD CONTACT ME IN A FEW DAYS TO SCHEDULE A CLEANING AND SPRAYING OF THE ENTIRE FRAME IN A FEW WEEKS. I DON'T BELIEVE THE TECH REMOVED MY WHEELS TO EXAMINE THE FRAME OR THOROUGHLY INSPECTED MY VEHICLE . I AM A 5 TOYOTA VEHICLE OWNER AND EXPLAINED THAT TO THE SERVICE WRITER. MY SERVICE LOCATION IS LAKEWOOD TOYOTA LOCATED IN NJ, MY SERVICE WRITER WAS ANGEL BURGOS. I HAVE EXTENSIVE RUST ON MY FRAME IN NUMEROUS AREAS ESPECIALLY BEFORE THE REAR AXLE AND AFTER , IN THE AREA OF THE HITCH ASSEMBLY AS WELL AS THE REAR AXLE . I UNDERSTAND THE CRITERIA FOR REPLACING THE FRAME VERSUS A TEMPORARY COVERING OF SEALANT . I UNDERSTAND THAT THE FRAME ON THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE IS RUSTING FROM THE INSIDE DUE CONSTRUCTION METHODS OF THE DANA CORPORATION BEING FAULTY IN DRAINAGE DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE. MY CONCERN THAT THIS PRODUCT WAS NOT INSPECTED

VA. STATE INSPECTION FAILED DUE TO LEFT FRONT SWAY BAR LINK BROKEN AND STEERING RACK LEAKING AND CAUSED BUSHINGS TO COME APART DUE TO CORROSION FROM RUSTING OUT FRAME. PREVIOUS WORK DONE ON 04/02/17 REVEALED ISSUE BUT NO ONE INFORMED US OF ANY RELATED RECALLS.

TAKATA RECALL - 2005 SEQ TOYTOTA I HAVE A ANOTHER SEQ AT THIS TIME. AUTO AIRBAG SETTLEMENT IN THE MAIL 8-2017

TAKATA INFKATORS HAVE NOT BEN REPAIRED

CODE 1223 1247 1360 BRAKE LIGHT TRAC OFF VSC TRAC ALL COME ON THIS SEAMS TO BE PROBLEM WITH THOUSANDS OF 2003 - 2005 SEQUOIA BRAKE SOMETIMES MAKE NOISE SO YOU NOT SURE BRAKES ARE GOOD WHEN CAR IN MOTION SEQUOIA HAS 78000 MILES

OCCASIONALLY, WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET OR HYWAY, THE VSC TRAC SENSOR LIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF AND HEARING GRINDING NOISE WHEN IT AUTO-ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE AND THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND SLOWS DOWN.

WITHOUT WARNING, THE BRAKE, VSC, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS WILL ALL ILLUMINATE. AFTER THIS HAPPENS AND THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THE ABS MAKES A SCREECHING SOUND , THE BRAKES LOCK UP AND THEN ARE LOST COMPLETELY. USUALLY REQUIRES A RAPID RESPONSE OF DOWNSHIFTING AND/ OR USING THE PARKING BRAKE TO AVOID COLLISIONS. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS EVERY 6-10 TIMES IT IS DRIVEN. MANY TIMES THERE ARE NO WARNINGS AT ALL, THE DASH LIGHTS HAPPENS INSTANTANEOUSLY WITH THE BRAKE FAILURE. SOMETIMES RESTARTING THE VEHICLE WILL MAKE A STOP BUT IT IS NO GUARANTEE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER FIVE YEARS WITH NO EXPLAINABLE CAUSE FROM MY MECHANIC.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.

MY VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY ACCELERATE FOR NO REASON. THIS SUDDEN "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OF POWER" COMES ON WITH NO NOTICE. I HAVE ALMOST HIT A PERSON AND HAVE BEEN IN ONE CAR ACCIDENT AS A RESULT. THIS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ABOUT 10 TO 12 TIMES. THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION HAS OCCURRED BOTH IN STATIONARY & IN MOTION; AND BOTH ON A CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY. TURNING HAS NOT BEEN AFFECTED BY UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. TOYOTA HAS TESTED AND PROVIDED THE ATTACHED REPORT TO ME BUT WITHOUT ANY INTERPRETATION. MY VEHICLE REPAIR COST BECAUSE OF THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WAS $4,529.24. TOYOTA STILL HAS NOT RESPONDED TO THIS DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. THE MANUFACTURER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. UPDATED 10/04/2017*JS

WHEN CORNERING ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD AT A SAFE SPEED; THE VSC TRACTION CONTROL KICKED IN; THIS CAUSED A GRINDING SOUND AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASH. CAUSED VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN; I PULLED OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD CHECKED WHEELS/TIRES UNDERCARRIAGE NOTHING FOUND; PROCEEDED TO DESTINATION DID NOT REPEAT. CHECKED ONLINE; OTHERS HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES.

MY REAR HATCH QUIT 48 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. FIRST THE REAR DEFROST/WIPER/WINDOW QUIT SOON FOLLOWED BY THE HATCH NOT OPENING AT ALL. THE ISSUE LIES WITH THE INADEQUATE 360 DEGREE SEALING OF THE REAR HATCH ITSELF. SEVERAL ISSUES HAVE RESULTED FROM THE INADEQUATE SEAL: WATER COMING IN UNDER THE HATCH AND MOLD FORMING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. DUST COMES IN THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON DIRT ROADS. NIGHT DRIVING IS ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE REAR WIPER AND DEFROST NOT WORKING. EVERY 03-05 OWNER I SPEAK WITH HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE REAR HATCH AND THE INTERNET FORUMS ARE ENDLESS.
