| Description of the problem | While driving on interstate vsc warning light came on, beeping and alarms heard. Engine slowed down and i felt like the vehicle was out of control. The vehicle swerved like it was hydroplaning on a dry highway. Called our repair shop immediately. Car was towed and research was done on the history of the problem in other toyota mini vans. I was told there were reports of this happening in other vehicles but not enough for a recall to be issued by toyota, recommendation by the report they found was to replace a sensor which is what was done. That was just over a month ago and the same problem occurred again tonight on a side road going approx 30 mph on dry road. Van is back at shop again tonight. I will be calling the 1-800 number for toyota, i do not understand why there is not a recall on this issue. Both incidences could have resulted in an accident. Tonight i was driving with my child in the van. This issue could have placed her life in danger had there been an accident. |
