Toyota Sequoia: Steering
Affects Toyota Sequoia · 2003 — about 1K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the center position of the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) may not be stored correctly due to improper logic of skid control ECU programming. If this occurs, in most cases the VSC/TRAC warning light will illuminate. However, in limited situations the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system could activate at low speed (approximately 15 km/hr) for a few seconds after acceleration from a stopped position, and the vehicle may not accelerate as quickly as the driver expects. This could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will re-program the skid control ECU.
