| Description of the problem | Check engine light and vsc/traction control lights keep coming on. Took it to toyota of lewisville, texas on 30 june 06 and again to toyota of killeen, texas on 15 july 06. Toyota of lewisville told me it was bad gas and that the problem was fixed. On 13 june 06 the light came on but went off after a couple of miles. On my way to dallas on 14 jun 06 the same thing happened. Later that day on my way back from dallas the lights came back on and i took my sequoia to toyota of killeen on 15 july 06. They worked on my sequoia until 25 july 06. I only had my truck for a day when the lights came back on. I took the truck back to the dealer the next day, 27 july 06, and the service department turned off the lights and an hour later told me my sequoia was ready and that if the problem persisted to bring it back. Right there in the service bay the light came on and the dealership has had it ever since. I talked to the service rep and he informs me that the computer has been replaced and the problem persist. They checked the fuel and drained the fuel and the problem persist. *jb |
