general problems of the 2007 Toyota Sequoia

The transmission seems to be slipping cs when taking off rpms goes up then vehicle takes off cs when going uphill around 40 vehicle struggles and does not shifts down. . Need replace transmission. . .

While the vehicle was traveling at about 40 mph it suddenly loses engine power and the vehicle becomes hard to steer. Both the vsc off and trac off lights came on. I had to pull to the side and the car died completely. I turned off the car but could not turn it on immediately. I waited for about 5 minutes and tried again and it started up fine, but after I drove for less than half mile the same issue happened again. It happened a total of 6 times within a couple of miles. Since then it's been happening every few days. Took it to my mechanic but they could not pull a code. Searching online it seems this is a common problem that happened to many 1st generation Sequoias.

This is very unsafe!! the vsc trac, vsc off, and brake light come on this truck. When these lights come on my car goes into a crazy slamming mode. It shakes the whole car and my car will not stop! I have babies and this is not safe for anyone on the road! the weird part is that as soon as you turn the car off then on everything seems fine and it works for a little bit then bam you are trying to stop and the car wont and start shaking out of control! please help! I have looked online and there are tons of people with the same problem. With Toyota's history they need to take care of it. We all need your help do the right thing and recall!!.

Began acceleration from 35 mph progressing to 55 mph, accelerator left my foot, engine sped up to over 5,000 rpm, applied both feet to brake pedal with all my weight, engine continued to race above 5,000 rpm, put car into drive 1 with no change, engine raced, put car into neutral and engine continued racing over 5,000 rpm, was able to steer car into a ditch, turned off ignition. The check engine light was blinking during this event. I was never able to stop with my brakes. I maintained both feet on the brake pedal during the event with my entire body weight on the pedal and the car never, ever stopped racing.

Toyota Sequoia 2007-- vsc/trac light is on indicating a failure in the traction control; seems to be a common problem for this make of car.

Vehicle "lunges" forward after being stopped (at a red light mostly). Foot is completely off the gas pedal and on the brake when this occurs. Sometimes happens immediately, sometimes after a minute of being stopped. This occurs regularly when driving this vehicle.

After coming to a complete stop while in drive (such as when at a stoplight), the vehicle will occasionally lunge or continue to roll forward when brake is fully depressed. This is dangerous because although you may be completely stopped at a red light for over a minute, the car may stop moving without your being aware. This has been reported all over message boards for Sequoia owners and also reported to my local dealership.

The vehicle "lunges" or "rolls" forward after coming to a complete stop with brakes fully depressed. This problem has been reported on numerous Toyota message boards for several Toyota models of varying years. This is very dangerous as the driver comes to a full stop and then the vehicle starts moving (with the brake fully depressed).

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Sequoia. While approaching a stop light the vehicle lurched forward. Also while idling the vehicle would roll forward. A master technician was then sent by Toyota , but he could not identify the cause of the failure. The current and failure mileages were under 24,000. The VIN was not available.
