general problems of the 2008 Toyota Sequoia

Tony divino Toyota, a Toyota motor company dealership, sold me this vehicle sight unseen knowing I would immediately be towing a boat trailer 350 miles at highway speeds through construction zones on I-80 with children and our dog onboard. I was told it had passed a "160 point inspection" and was "in great condition". However, when delivered to me the dealership knew it was not road worthy and in fact illegal to drive on public roads due to missing a third brake light, bad rear brakes were bad, the transmission had failed, the battery had failed, the shocks/struts had failed, and a live shotgun shell was rolling around under the drivers seat. Both Toyota motor corporation and the dealership refused to address or correct these vehicle defects which could have resulted in a disastrous crash with injury/death to myself and children. This systemic Toyota disregard for used vehicle quality creates a national safety issue with all cars processed through the Toyota motor company network.

When I'm slowing down for a red light, then the light turns green. And I hit the acceleration the car would jerk. And same thing when I make a left turn. It would jerk and feels like I have no acceleration.

4lo, vdc, check engine light & anti- skid light keep coming on for years. Dealership and Toyota specialist couldn't figure out what's wrong. Latest was 12/28/15 I brought the vehicle with all 4 lights on . . . Charged me $1thousand dollars even the problem is recurrent for years. I p/u the vehicle the next day, put gas at costco and parked it for the night. The next day . . . Enroute to to las vegas; upon entering the I-15 north freeway ( less than 2 hrs of driving on d drive ) lights came on again. Our family don't feel safe driving this vehicle. Please help us.
