2004 TOYOTA SIENNA Complaints

FOR NO REASON THE VSC AND TRACTION ALARM GOES OFF THE VEHICLE BRAKES ON ITS OWN DANGEROUSLY. IT IS HAPPENING DAILY. USUALLY WHEN GOING HIGH SPEED AND AROUND A LEFT BEND. I WENT AND HAD THE SYSTEM RESET AS IS CALLED FOR AFTER ALIGNMENT. THAT DIDN'T FIX IT. I HAD THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR REPLACED AND THAT DIDN'T FIX IT. THE YAW REPLACED AND THAT DIDN'T FIX IT. SO NOW WHAT? THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR MY FAMILY.

ON FREEWAY INTERCHANGES, ENTRANCES AND EXITS VSC AND ABS SUDDENLY ENGAGESS. VAN IS NOT AGGRESSIVELY DRIVEN AND WHEN TURNING ON MOUNTAIN ROADS AND SWITCH BACKS VSC AND ABS ENGAGES DESPITE THE SLOW AND CONTROLED STEERING.

TRACTION CONTROL BEEPS AND BRAKES HARD AT UNNECESSARY TIMES, EVEN ON FREEWAY ON RAMPS, ENDANGERING THE OCCUPANTS AND OTHER CARS. REPEATED TRIPS TO MECHANICS HAVE FAILED TO CURE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND OCCURS EVERY DAY.

VEHICLE STABILITY SYSTEM ENGAGING BRAKES UNEXPECTLY DURING TURNS PLACING VAN IN UNSAFE CONDITION. UNEXPECTED BRAKING CAN ALSO OCCUR AT 65 MPH IN A TURN!

STEERING DO NOT STAY STRAIGHT WHILE I AM DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. SINCE I PURCHASED, I WENT TO TOYOTA IN THE BEGINNING THEY FIX IT BUT ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVE AND AS OF TODAY SAME PROBLEM AND I REPLACED NEW TIRES STILL ALIGNMENT IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM. LIGHTING IS NOT STRONG TO SEE DEER ON THE ROAD.

SEAT BELT BUCKLE UNLATCHES ITSELF WHILE DRIVING (CITY STREETS AS WELL AS HIGHWAY) OR STATIONARY. THIS OCCURS EVER AFTER SHOVING THE TONGUE BACK AND FORTH IN THE LATCH SEVERAL TIMES AND IT REMAINS LATCHED. LATER, IT WILL UNLATCH ITSELF. IT HAS OCCURRED MOSTLY ON STRAIGHTAWAYS, BUT ALSO IN TURNS. I REMOVED THE LATCH ASSEMBLY AND BLEW COMPRESSED AIR THROUGH IT. TWO LARGE RED PLASTIC PIECES CAME OUT, BUT THE PROBLEM RETURNED ON THE NEXT DRIVE. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS NOW. IT HAS OCCURRED FROM ZERO TO 65 MILES AN HOUR.
