Description of the problem	Regarding a '04 honda sequoia, the vehicle stability control system -- which is a traction control that interrupts engine ignition to slow wheel spin -- has frequently been activating when unnecessary. The result is that the vehicle slows dramatically when surrounding traffic is moving at a much higher speed. This occurs frequently. The vehicle is owned by my 36-yr.-old son, and i've been in the vehicle, with my 1-yr.-old grandson, when it malfunctions. It is unnerving and unsafe to be on an interstate highway -- i-196, michigan -- and to suddenly slow to a crawl with surrounding traffic -- including semis -- zooming by at high speed blowing horns and gesturing(i couldn't agree with them more). I retired from gm world hq in detroit as a senior executive with nearly 30 years experience in manufacturing, public affairs and media relations. My plant and divisional experience includes fisher body, buick and detroit diesel allison. At the corporate level i've worked in our washington, d. C., office, and, of course, detroit. In fact, i was at buick when traction control first started being explored. What we lacked back then was computer horsepower necessary to deal with wheel speed input and proper ignition interrupt. In any event, i know an unsafe condition when i see it... Such as going slow when everything else is going fast. I have a feeling, too, that my son's vehicle is not a one-of-a-kind situation. P. S. Your listing of models didn't include the sequoia suv, so i checked "pilot".
