What owners wrote
The traction control system on my 2002 toyota sequoia is dangerous. It cuts engine power and traction to the rear wheels under acceleration in slippery conditions. I have almost been hit several times as a rusult of my vehical "stalling" under acceleration when pulling out into an inmtersection or busy road. Toyota claims it can not disable the sysem
While driving down the road at approximately 45 MPH on a straight away, dry conditions, the trac control light and alarm sounded, a grinding noise started, the vehicle started to lose power and pull to the right. After slowing the car down to appx 25 MPH the light, alarm, and grinding noise went away. This same issue has re-occurred on another occasion under the same type of circumstances. This is a serious safety concern.
