The traction control on my 2010 Toyota Tacoma does not work. It does not reduce the throttle as it is supposed to. When on a patch of ice or slick road the tires and throttle just continue to engage. The stability control finally engages but still does not reduce the throttle response.

We own a 2006 Toyota Tacoma. In three different incidents when we have attempted to brake especially when we go over bumps the caused on freeways by big rigs the Tacoma will makes a noise, and it does not brake. It is not stopping, and we have to pump the brake in order to eventually brake. This especially occurred when we were exiting the freeway. We fear our safety, and called the Toyota dealer where we purchased the vehicle today. I spoke to a representative from the service department at 10:05 a. M. Local time at 800-276-9699. She advised that since we did not purchase extended warranty they would have to charge me. I explained that we feared for our safety and since we are expecting a newborn in few months do not even want to use the car. In these economic times and due to the recent issues with Toyota we feel they should take a look at the vehicle without expecting to charge us. This is truly a safety issue, and can result in death or serious injury from an accident. We are hoping for some assistance since Toyota does not want to help in any way. I finally want to say I verified this problem as I drove back to this location and the same thing occurred, so I am hoping this can clearly raise the issue that there is a problem with these cars and Toyota once again.
