 My 2003 toyota sequoia's abs/vsc/trac lights are on. now the brake light is coming on intermittently. we've had the rear and front brake pads changed recently. recently while we were coming to a slow stop at a gas station, i was pressing the brake and it made a loud grinding noise. it felt like the brakes were going to give out. immediately after, the brake light went on. i turned the engine off and the brake light was gone. a few times while at a stop light, the car will give a little jerk as if being hit from the back. called toyota customer care center to file a complaint with them regarding the issue with the lights and brakes issue. did internet research and this is a very common complaint among sequoia owners...yet they still don't have a safely recall on this vehicle. the toyota representative said there was a recall for the ecu skid control system - but that my vin number didn't fall under the recall. we have taken it to an independent mechanic and they pulled the following codes: c1223, c1244, c1247 and c1310. it seems that if this is a problem that many sequoia owners are experiencing, toyota should fix it. please help! *tr

 I just bought this used 2003 toyota sequoia on may 25, 2012. i noticed the warning lights indicating a defective traction control system and abs system on my way home from the dealership. they assured me the system works fine and that it has something to do with the computer module. all the following warning lights are on at the same time: trac, vsc off, and abs lights. i also checked the vehicle history on the toyota website and it is recorded that the toyota dealer worked on this problem on 07/23/2009 when the car had 97,187 miles. i have done a lot of research on this and it seems 50,000 sequoia's were recalled for this problem, however, my sequoia's vin was not on the list. please help. in addition the lighting on the dashboard does not work.
