Two months after purchasing a 2011 toyota rav4 limted v6, the car showed three warning lights: the check engine light, the four wheel drive light, and the vsc (vehicle stability control) light while i was driving on a highway. After running a check engine light diagnostic, the problem was found to be the o2 sensor. My husband replaced the sensor, and the next day after driving roughly 10 miles on a rural local road…

Electronic Stability Control · Unknown Or Other
The vehicle has a chronic issue with the o2 sensor which will prompt a engine light. The engine light will cause the vehicle to automatically shut off the 4wd and stability control and will happen at any triggering of the engine light. This is concerning especially in winter environments.

Rav4 -cel, 4wd, trac off all three lights came on. I had them read 4 times by 3 different mechanics. Each time i was told rear oxygen sensor needs to be replaced. I had the sensor replaced twice in less than 2 weeks to confirm it wasn't a faulty sensor. The all 3 lights came back on in less than 24 hours. Fyi: the other sensor was replaced as well.

I recently had the charcoal canister that filters gas fuels fail. This caused teh check engine light to come on. In addition though, this fault took out 2 safety systems due to this code. After the light came on my brake anti skid system and cruise control were inoperable. I complained to the dealer about this issue and was told this was normal. In my opinion, just because a check engine light comes on should not…

While driving at speed the vehicle's stability, antilock brakes and traction control functions stop functioning and the indicator light for all turn on. The cruise control disengages which caused the car to decelerate rapidly. I was in traffic and was able to accelerate to avoid an accident. The accelerator and braking appear to work properly but i am unable to reengage the cruise control. This is exactly the same…

I experienced a sudden vehicle acceleration event on april 6th. I followed toyota's investigation procedure and even met with a technical expert and we agree on the following points: the event would have shown up as two separate events in the abs history queue. An initial vsc event (sudden acceleration) closely followed by the abs event (my pressing on the brake pedal harder in response to the sudden acceleration)…

This is an incident involving sudden vehicle acceleration. I was stopped with my foot on the brake in the where great mall parkway turns onto eastbound montague expwy in milpitas, ca. Despite having my foot on the brake, the vehicle began to creep forward. I responded by pressing the brake pedal harder. This caused the vehicle stability control system to engage and the brake pedal pushed through the resistance point…
