 Description of the problemI own a 2004 toyota sequoia with 35,500 miles. I recently took my vehicle to toyota to check on the vehicle skid control (vsc) light, vsc track light and the check engine light because they would not turn off. The service advisor stated that based the diagnostic repair codes and a repair bulletin, the skid control ecu must be replaced at a cost of $1668. 90 this is very disappointing and toyota's are looking less than good at the moment. The ecu is not a wear and tear item and is not subject to ongoing maintenance, it's a computer chip that is designed to control the vsc. If the ecu can not be reprogrammed to function as intended, then this design flaw that again should have been replaced under warranty or as a recall. The design flaw is serious and affects the safety and stability of the vehicle. Finally, the ecu is essentially a small computer and at a high price tag to replace such and inexpensive part is absurd. I own 3 toyota suv's and if toyota does not honor its commitment to quality, then i will not keep, purchase, nor recommended a toyota again. I hope toyota does the right thing and issue a recall for this problem. Thanks

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
