The contact owns a 2008 Toyota Sequoia. The contact stated that he took the vehicle to a dealer for unknown service in March 2010 and immediately after, he noticed oil leaking from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where they were unable to locate the source of the oil leak. The vehicle was released to the contact yet the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer a third time and the dealer replaced the O-ring. The failure stopped however within several days, the failure recurred. The manufacturer advised taking the vehicle to a different dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were approximately 10,000.

2008 Toyota Sequoia lost power while driving at 65 mph. I was able to pull over to shoulder on the freeway then the car lost all power, even to steering. Tech said it is not battery, starter, etc...

After 4,399 mi. The left exhaust manifold cracked and produced a ticking sound on acceleration and exhaust fumes can be smelled through the vents when fan is on. As per dealers advice, it's ok to use vehicle pending repair. It's been 5 days and the part hasn't arrived yet. Contacted dealer few times to facilitate repair.
