TOYOTA RECALLS AGAIN: 2003 SEQUOIA THIS TIME



Toyota seems to be in deep trouble this year, and its continuously loosing customer`s faith. There has been another recall on Wednesday  for thousands 2003 model Toyota  Sequoia SUV to repair a potential vehicle stability control (VSC) program.

The VSC system helps control a loss of traction during turns and in vehicles without the upgrade, the VSC system could, in some situations, activate at low speed and, as a result, the vehicle may not accelerate as quickly as expected. This recall is for about 50000 vehicles manufactured in 2003. Though there has been no accidents reported till date, It is a major issue as far as customers are concerned.Another Toyota SUV, the Lexus GX 460, was also recalled earlier this month because of a stability-control problem.


The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has at least 64 complaints about the systems engaging at “inappropriate” times.
The recall has again raised the questions over the safety issues which Toyota has been facing quite a lot in recent past.
