Description of the problem	A couple of days ago, when i was driving on the highway, my sequoia suddenly stopped accelerating. Trac light and vsc light and check engine light came on. My speed would not go above 40mph and would not even brake. I was in the left lane and the cars behind me were going pretty fast and almost hit me. I am lucky there was no car in the right lane, so i pulled to that lane just in time. It was a scary moment for me because my kids were with me also. I always thought of toyota of having safety in their cars, but when i came home to research what might be happening to the car, i found out many people are having the same exact problem and thus it is a manufacturers problem. I am suprised toyota is not doing anything about this. Do they not care of the safety of the consumers? The milage on my sequoia is only 39,000 and i do not drive it too often, and also have maintained it very well. We spend so much money on this car and this vehicle really was not worth it if it came with so many factory defaults. Please follow-up on this issue to have it resolved.
