FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS, MY VSC, ABS, BRAKES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON TWICE. THE FIRST TIME, THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE ON-BOARD COMPUTING UNIT (ABOUT $3000). THE SECOND TIME (LAST WEEK), THE DEALER REPLACE THE SAME UNIT AGAIN BUT I AM PAYING $1400 BECAUSE THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS VERY SCARY AS THE VEHICLE LOOSES POWER ALL OF THE SUDDEN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DIGITAL SPEED READER WAS PROVIDING A DIFFERENT READING FROM THE SPEEDOMETER READING. THE DIFFERENCE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3 MPH GREATER ON THE SPEEDOMETER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED TO THE CONTACT THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS ACCORDING TO THEIR SERVICE MANUAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND SENT AN ENGINEER TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINEER DETERMINED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED AND A DEFECT WAS NOT FOUND WITHIN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.
