| Description of the problem | When our driveway is slippery, our 2005 toyota sequoia will not stop on a very slight incline. The front wheels lock up and the rear wheels keep pulling the vehicle until the roadway is reached. Toyota claims this is normal and the vehicle needs to be in four wheel drive with the center axle lock on! I don't know what they recommend for a two wheel drive sequoia. I have a video of the vehicle in action if you would like to see it. Thank you. *nm |
