car is not recalled yet the same model year is recalled from 2007, this problem effects my car as well as cars made earlier in the year. The suspension is unstable and joints are worn in many places ball joints and other steering effecting joints. The car makes sudden side movements like the wheel is about to fall off or the tire fell off the time but the tires are properly inflated. Repair estimated are atleast $600 possibly $1200 as it is worn in 2 places The problem is on the passenger side front. The car has 114000 miles. There is no recall on this car but other Sequoias made the same year are recalled This is pretty obvious the problem was in the design and not the date of manufacture.

There is severe abnormal frame rust & perforations in the vehicles frame. I received noticed to address Toyota frame recall when I called Toyota customer relations to inquiry about any recalls on my vehicle. The rep explained of two recalls & scheduled an appointment at my local Toyota service center (fitzgerald lakeforest Toyota) to address the frame recall campaign & airbag recall. The service adviser explained frame recall remedy was not applicable because there were perforations discovered in the vehicles frame. The vehicle was entitled to a frame replacement. The adviser explained the frame recall replacement has expired & that I needed to call Toyota customers relations to look into the problem. The airbag recall was corrected. I called them. The Toyota customers relations representative explained the frame recall for my vehicle expired January 31, 2019 & Toyota is not able to help me with this problem. I am not sure why there is a expiration date on this recall if there are still vehicles out on the road with faulty vehicle frames. I have attached the picture of perforation in the frame.

On Wednesday, February 7, I was driving our 2007 Toyota Sequoia 4X4 on a rural road that had had fresh snow the night before, but no sand or other road salt was laid down. It is a curvy and hilly road. I had driven on the road an hour earlier with no problems. At approximately 9am, I encountered a patch of ice where there was a curve in the road and my SUV that had brand new Michelin tires on collided with a tree that was part of an island in the middle of the road. The tree was approximately 15 inches in diameter. The collision struck directly on left side of engine by headlight'plowing in approximately 9 inches and deflated front tire. Front suspension was broken as is hood ( see picture). No airbags deployed"? I was going approximately 25-30 mph at impact. My airbag on drivers side was recalled with takata recall and replaced, but I wonder if it was installed properly or wrong? I suffered a concussion and other trauma Toyota dealer body shop indicates that all sensors for airbags on frame only and since frame not hit no deployment?"

I was told I need a 2nd air inception flow because it is bad. My ball joints are also needing to be replaced as they have been bad and its dangerous, the plastic handle for hatch broke, the arm for hatch broke, suspension swing arm bad, tramsmission misses first gear on and off. I bought this car because I wanted something I wouldn't have issues with and I have had plenty of issues since I purchased it especially with front end. Once in a while the engine reffs up high and I'm just sitting there with foot on the break.

2007 Sequoia vsc trac sensor lights turning on and off and hearing grinding noise when accelerating and decelerating. Along with the vsc trac sensor lights turning on, the brake indicator light turns on as well. The most recent occurrence happened as I was picking up my daughter from school, and as I was pulling away from the school doing no more than 20 mph - my vehicle made a grinding noise and all the above listed indicator lights came on. I was able to (nervously) drive my vehicle home. This has also happened multiple times before at different speeds. During these instances, I have noticed decrease acceleration and my vehicle feels like the rear is sliding from side to side. I am afraid of not being able to stop in time, the brakes failing completely or a total loss of power as a result of this.

On Monday afternoon 1/19/2015 was driving my 2007 Toyota Sequoia 40 mph as I drove my vehicle suddenly dropped on the left side & my tire flew off. Damage was done to my suspension as it scrapped & hit the concrete pavement damage was done to my rim. Now the dealership I purchased the vehicle from is currently working to resolve my issue. What happened to me has happened to many others where they will input your VIN into Toyota system but it does not populate that your vehicle is involved in the recall. Yet they recalled over 500,000 vehicle sold with the defect ball joint. This has cause substantial damage to a perfectly good vehicle.

When at a complete stop (brakes applied), once releasing brake and slowly starting to move (less than 1 mph), everyone in the vehicle feels a nudge (like getting rear ended or a bad drive-line U-joint). Also, feel a similar nudge when the automatic transmission shifts from 3rd to 4th gear (possibly 4th to 5th gear with the over-drive on) at about 50 mph. These conditions constantly occur every time the vehicle is driven (everyday!). reported both conditions to the dealer numerous times since Nov 2012 (while under the extended warranty), and the dealer continues to say this is normal and continues to diagnose as suspension spring wrap/tension. The dealer action was to lube the drive-line U-joints (with no improvement). I do not buy it, and believe there is a much bigger issue/defect potentially with the automatic transmission and over-drive. Now my extended warranty has expired and the nudge continues and has intensified. This is a safety concern not to mention I will not be able to sell the vehicle with this condition (s.O.L). My recommendation, do not buy a Toyota truck or sport utility vehicle until Toyota addresses the issue/defect.
