Hi, Marc Sparks here,
 
I have a friend with a Sequoia that has the same type problem. It has been to the shop three times now. No luck getting it fixed. Good luck to you!!
 
Thanks,
 
Marc Sparks

Took my 2001 in June 2006. Had to spend $1,000 to have a computer board replaced. After investigating and showing Toyota that this happens ALOT, they decided to give us a $350 credit toward our 60,000 mile maintenance checkup. This weekend, it started doing the exact same thing again. Guess we will get the run around again.

Sequoia Recall by toyotatoys

I have not posted in along time, but I still have my 01 SEQ. I have now 93K, but had to change tires at 52K and the starter at 88K. I had my TSB on the brakes done at 35K, but I have not replaced my brake pads since then. My SEQ still purrs like when it was new.
 
I thought I heard on TV last month about a recall on SEQ, but I could not find any discussion thread about this recall. Does anybody know of any recall? I don't have any problem right now, but I don't want to miss a recall opportunity either.
 
Thanks for any info.

This article mentions about the Sequoia recall on faulty steering, but it does not say which model years are covered.

Got it on 2002 April, has 56K mile now, change the break at 50k when dealer told it still has 10K mile but I have a long trip to Banff so I changed it anyway, changed the tires at 52K. No proble at all.
 
Before the one I had a 98 Mecedes ML320 which I bought at MSRP, In less than four years I had it, I change the brake at 22k milse, transe case at 40K($5000 if not warrant), I have to go the dealer every three month for ligt, power, door openner etc. It was bad experince for the Mecedes, no more.

Thank you! by telfer

Dude,
 
You are a Saint among men. Your post saved me many hours of time, busted knuckles, and broken parts. Of course the dealer would not respond to my email comparing my Sequoia (with the non-functional rear window and broken lift gate hatch lever) to the functionality of a Honda Civic.
 
I've got the panel off, and was able to finally open the rear door. I have ordered the latch handle, and will replace it when it arrives. Thanks much again. Your willingness to help others when Toyota wouldn't is a godsend.

Re: 2003 Seq Shifter D light out two times [deviyiya] by acash

My 02 Sequoia has the same problem with the D shift light being out. I decided to live with the issue rather than paying for the solution. However after feeling jerking at low speeds following my super bowl trip was informed that at 80k miles my Sequoia needs a new transmission at a cost of $3400.
 
I'm searching for options but this seems to be the case with a number of owners. I'll accept all alternatives to dealer price.

Sorry to hear about your transmission. I would try another dealer if you have one within range.
 
Just out of curiosity, do you know how many transmission oil changes/flushes your Sequoia has had? I'm wondering about mine, even though it seems ok now...

If you pull a trailer you should take special care of your transmission. I have mine flushed every 30K miles, and have had no problems. i now have 120K on my seq. If you tow often you also have to have the rear axle differential fluid changed every 5K miles. toyota can check the fluid and see by its color what its condition is and save you on a possible unnecessary change, even though it is relatively cheap, $30-50 if I remember.

I have changed the transmission fluid at 35k miles since owning the vehicle. Also I have never pulled any trailers, boats, etc in the vehicle. I cannot speak for the previous owner of the vehicle but upon purchase the Sequoia only had 60k miles, corporate lease and dealer maintenance. Life gives no guarantees but after 3k for a new trans, I think I got the shaft.
