| Description of the problem | On sept 6,2006. The trac off, vsc trac and check engine lights are coming. My 2003 sequoia only has 31,786 miles and paid $2891. 48 for the service. Today 8-26-09 my car only has 58,000 miles and the trac off, vsc trac and the check engine lights are coming back, they want to charge to fix the same problem. I am not sure they fixed the previous problem in 2006? Because i asked them to save the parts and give it to me when i pick up the car, but they did have it, something is fishy? If they replace now the problem is back, my car have low miles. I do some research on the internet, could be the problem from the toyota, they need to "recall" all sequoia to fix the problem. I don't want pay $3,000 every 2 years or every 30,000 miles. |
