What owners wrote
This was the first incident: as I was driving then suddenly the truck started to beep and moves back and forth and made a braking sound. And I went into the side and hit a small post and the seat belt tighten. Now my back has been hurting me since. And some lights were on. The vsc trac and trac off lights were on. Then after that one I have been driving very careful but it will still do the same thing. The beep starts and the swirling back and forth.
My 2001 toyota sequoia is experiencing false skid indications resulting in dangerous applications of the right front wheel brake. The indications are illumination of the skid symbol, rapid antiskid servo action, right front wheel brake application which last from one second to as much as 30 seconds. Once the right front brake application stops, the skid symbol is no longer illuminated and the trac off and vsc trac lights illuminate.
