When the water is then transferred to the switching valves. The vehicle will loose speed rapidly on a medium grade with no ability to accelerate. The cruise control causes the tranmission to downshift repeatedly trying to…

When i started the car a bunch of lights illuminated and stayed on. The 4x4, stability control traction control, etc. It has happened 9 times over the last two years. Turning the car off then on would not make it go away. I had to disconnect battery and reconnect before it seems to be working right. *tr

Someone from toyota headquarters that was visiting my…

This is the 3rd or 4th time this has happened. I took the truck to the dealer to have it checked…
