I was driving on a dry road, going 70mph when my car began flashing the abs indicator and it began breaking and controlling my steering taking me into another lane. The car slowed my vehicle suddenly down to 60 mph and then went off like it never happened. I then had control. There was no reason for the car to do this. There was nothing in the road and luckily no one was to close to me or there would have been an accident. I almost over corrected due to the pulling of the steering and the breaking of the vehicle.

shifter broke at 55 mph wouldn't stay in 5 gear, was easily moved to R, N, and flopped around! won't stay in 4 now when used either, or PARK unless held when turning car off. NO warning, shifted down for a hill, speed limit change, and corner in neighborhood as usual, no lights on in car. just happened but upon research, have found many others with this problem online, same veh and same kind of miles.Toyota knows but won't recall their broken plastic piece and no notification to consumer

While reversing out of a parking spot, felt the van "jumped" then accelerated on it's own while in reverse swiped a parked truck, and did a half circle into the drive-through of a parking lot only to stopped when it hit another SUV. I felt I had no control of the van while this was happening.

Continuous issues with traction control system almost daily. Any time vehicle veers towards the right anti-slip indicator light, alarm sounds and ABS system activates. This happens almost daily, on dry roads, going downhill or on a curve, even while switching lanes now. This happens above 20 mph. Driving becomes stressful and worry-some when alarm begins to sound and dash light come on. Fear of losing control becomes great, fear for your passengers safety as well as other drivers safety becomes real. During the past 3 months there have been 5 separate incidents in which the vehicle has lost acceleration, pulls steering in one direction and sudden break lock occurs. 2 of which took place on the freeway on ramp at a speed of 35mph, 1 driving downhill, slightly towards the right, at a speed if 20mph and the last 2 while switching lanes, 35 mph. Vehicle began losing power and slowing instead of increasing speed. There are many complaints regarding this issue with many drivers in many areas. Why isn't this being investigated?

Driving on the highway, let off the gas though kept accelerating, braked as hard as possible without any effect, shifted to neutral and continued to accelerate

From driving normal speed, car cap out at 20 mph at highway. Almost got into wreck. Check engine light came on as is happened. I took it to auto zone. Manager checked and said it happened to his 2014 corolla, Toyota covered variable transmission celenoid under recall. He said to call Toyota or dealership. Dealership is saying, there is no recall for this kind of safety issue.

While on the road, infrequently as we start hitting continuous curves, the beeping starts with slip control symbol coming on. The brakes engage on their own. It doesn't seem to matter how fast or slow we take the curves. I have no control over the vehicle at that point and it starts braking itself for few seconds. Very dangerous on the curves and especially if someone is behind you.

Shift control didn't work and van rolled away. We also had an issue backing out of our garage and the car sped up and went out of control. The van was out of control and finally stopped out in the street. This van scared the day lights out of us. Complete defect

Husband pulled into parking spot in front of a store, he was completely stopped in the spot and before he could put in park it suddenly accelerated full rev, hopped the curb and hit the building. While up against the building it was still in full rev. Finally it stopped and he backed it back over the curb. Van went about three feet into the building. Tire on front passenger side was flattened. Van has been totaled. Thank god no one was in front of our van.

Takata inflators - when driving in city 30mph or freeway 50-60mph in curvy path, the unti-skid lock turns off even if the road was dry. When it happened frequently and a motorcycle almost slammed from behind, I brought my van to the dealer and it shows no record of the unti-skid lock being on. I insisted to take precautions and they did a zero calibration, changed new tires and realignment but problem persist. I brought it back with the same complaint but they claimed the they never had any other customer with the same problem. I reached online yet there were many others. I hope you can help me on this. The dealer can't figure out this problem and just washed their hands. This happened multiple times already and afraid to drive my van.

When driving through sweeping turns on dry, paved roads, the vehicle's vsc engages, causing vehicle to self brake, pulling to the left (toward oncoming traffic), and the vsc light on the dash to blink and beep. This puts the passengers of my car in danger, as well as those in vehicles around us who are not expecting a sudden application of brakes or swerving into neighboring lane. My vehicle has been inspected at an independent mechanic with no findings which would warrant the vehicle to engage in such activity.

The contact owns a 2005 Toyota Sienna. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stability control off warning light illuminated and engine would surge, the rpms would decrease and the vehicle would jerk to the left. The contact indicated that the failure would occur for approximately 10 seconds. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 145,000.

I was backing out of my garage and I have an L shaped driveway. I was going approx. 2mph and then I took my foot off the gas and was "covering" the brake and suddenly the car began to accelerate and I tried to brake, but the car slammed into a parked car and still did not stop. It continued to accelerate until I ended up in the street. I was trying to brake the entire time, but the car did not stop and continued to accelerate. My foot was not on the gas. We live on a residential street in the suburbs and luckily no one was hurt. The Sienna and the parked car both have extensive body damage.

2005 Toyota Sienna's vehicle stability control engaged for no reason while in many different conditions (dry, wet, curve, straight, it didn't matter) making me lose control of the car. The vsc, trac off and check engine lights came on and a beeping sound engaged while the care took over not allowing driver input. I had to put it in neutral until it turned off. I have read many accounts online of other Toyota Sienna drivers experiencing the same dangerous problem. Thank goodness when it has happened, I haven't had a truck or semi next to me. This is my family car in which I need to drive my kids and other people's kids, and I cannot drive it anymore. Toyota has to fix this problem, since it is a manufacturer problem.

On Monday, Oct. 13, 2014, I was slowly backing out of my driveway when my 2005 Toyota Sienna van suddenly accelerated rapidly and uncontrollably. I tried to stop the van, but it sped backwards across the street in front of my house, ran over a curb, and crashed into a parked car. The car that my van struck pushed into another car which was also damaged. This was most frightening and upsetting, especially since I have learned that this type of malfunction has been reported many times to Toyota. My van was totaled, the second car may have been totaled and the third car will need at least a new door. A woman who was in the third car is claiming to have been injured.

On hwy 1 from pacifica to santa cruz, driving approx, 45-50mph around the bends and curves, the van's vsc light would come on along with warning beeping and the car would try to "correct" itself by steering straight when I needed it not to. This happened again approx. 1-2 months later while driving along hwy 50, at approx. 45-50mph up to South lake Tahoe on the same dry, but winding/curvy roads, the car would try to "correct" itself by steering straight. Again, on June 17th, along hwy 50 approx. 45-50mph just taking the exit off of the freeway, steering into the right hand turn lane, the car vsc light, beeping and steering "correction". this is very dangerous!!!! I am surprised that it has not caused an accident yet!. I need the car to turn for a reason!! please feel free to contact me for further information. I took it to the Toyota dealership and they said that the van had no logs from the sensors (steering angle or yaw). We asked them to recalibrate it (set it back to zero), but that obviously hasn't worked. I have ordered a new steering angle sensor and I am having it installed and the system recalibrated, in hopes that will fix the issue.

- El Dorado Hills, CA, USA

Driving 45 to 50 mph on a road on a dry sunny day. Suddenly vsc light came on and warning beep and at the same time the brakes engaged causing a rapid slow down of the van. I almost swerved into the next lane due to the brakes engaging. This happened 3 times in one morning. This is extremely dangerous as it could cause a collision, especially at higher speeds.

The accelerator stuck on this van as I was passing another vehicle on a rural, two lane road. As soon as I depressed the accelerator to pass, I knew something was wrong. The gas pedal stayed down even after I removed my foot and the van continued to accelerate even faster even though I was now hitting the brakes hard! with curves in the road approaching in about a mile, I had to do something fast! I was standing on the brakes with both feet now and the van continued to speed up. I was able to shift it into neutral, all the while continuing to stand on the brakes. The engine revved even faster but I was able to get the van turned off the road into a farm field access drive. The van still wasn't stopping but at least I was off the road and not going to hit another vehicle. As the van continued to move, I thought about bailing out but thankfully, I didn't. the van was still going fast enough it could've run over me and I had no idea where it would end up if I got out! by the grace of god, the van finally stopped after I started turning the wheel hard to the left. I shifted it into park and shut it off while I sat there shaking and trying to decide who to call first. This situation could have turned out extremely bad had the circumstances been different. Thank god there was no one in front of me while this was going on, I wasn't in a congested area of houses or other vehicles or on a busy highway. I'm so glad one of our boys wasn't driving this when it happened! this was the scariest thing that's ever happened to me while driving over 30 years! the van was towed to the dealership where we purchased it and have had it serviced faithfully. I'm waiting to hear back from them when they will be able to look at it.

2005 Sienna was driven to a parking garage and parked for two hours. Upon returning to the Sienna and starting the engine, three lights came on; check engine, vsc, and trac off. Drove vehicle home (150 miles), the 3 lights remained on as well as loss of cruise control and an intermittent compass display. Took vehicle in for inspection at a local Toyota dealer and was told the skid control unit ECU needed to be replaced. I found out there are other complaints and a technical service bulletin on the 2005 Sienna vehicle stability control (also called electronic stability control) system that has caused injuries. Even more remarkable, my 2005 Sienna has only 62K miles and in that time there has been 2 other incidences with the same symptoms. Why has there not been a recall if there are already injuries in the database??
