What owners report

  • 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.

    filed Jan 24, 2018

  • 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.
