| Description of the problem | My toyota camry hybrid all sudden after 2 minutes of driving, had all of its warning lights on (like abs, engine...) and with the vcs warning text across the dash board. It was very hard to control the vehicle to pull it off the road. I am not sue what is happening, but god forbid if this thing happened on the highway, i would have been in accident. The card was in no drivable and constituted a huge hazard. A car must never be allowed to lose power suddenly while driving. Scary experience and must be looked by the relevant authority to compel toyota to investigate and may be recall those hybrids. |
