| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Traction control system (vsc/trac) will intermittently not function for no apparent reason, causing vsc/trac lights to illuminate and potentially compromising vehicle safety. diagnostic check of vehicle reveals a problem with the brake booster and/or a sensor within the brake booster assembly that is prone to intermittent failure on this vehicle. replacement of the parts in question are prohibitively expensive (over $1,000) and only covered up to 3yr/36k mile on the vehicle. there is a definite failure trend present in this particular vehicle and toyota knows about them, given the tsbs that exist for this problem. this issue needs to be addressed as a recall to ensure all vehicles, especially ones out of warranty coverage, are repaired properly. *jb |
