Toyota Sequoia 2022 User Guide

The Toyota Sequoia is a full-size SUV that has been produced by the Japanese automaker Toyota since 2000. As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the most recent model available was the 2021 Toyota Sequoia. However, I can provide you with some general information about the Toyota Sequoia and its features based on the previous model. The Toyota Sequoia is known for its spacious and comfortable interior, powerful performance, and off-road capability. It is designed to accommodate up to eight passengers and offers a range of features to enhance comfort and convenience. In terms of powertrain, the 2021 Sequoia was equipped with a 5.7-liter V8 engine, which produced 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque. It came with a 6-speed automatic transmission and had rear-wheel drive as standard, with the option for four-wheel drive. The Sequoia has a towing capacity of up to 7,400 pounds, making it suitable for hauling trailers and other heavy loads.

In terms of technology and safety features, the Sequoia typically offers a touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone integration, a rearview camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and a variety of driver-assistance features such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and forward collision warning. Please note that this information is based on the previous model, and there may be updates and changes for the 2022 Toyota Sequoia. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend contacting a Toyota dealership or visiting the official Toyota website.

Noise from under vehicle after turning off the engine
Approximately five hours after the engine is turned off, you may hear a sound coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound of a fuel evaporation leakage check and it does not indicate a malfunction.

Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Toyota
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Toyota vehicles are currently available in the market. You should know that Toyota does not warrant these products and is not responsible for their performance, repair, or replacement, or for any damage they may cause to, or adverse effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Toyota products. Modification with non-genuine Toyota products could affect its performance, safety or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from the modification may not be covered under warranty.
Also, remodeling like this will have an effect on advanced safety equipment such as Toyota Safety Sense P and there is a danger that it will not work properly or the danger that it may work in situations where it should not be working.

Installation of a mobile two-way radio system
The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as:

  • Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
  • Toyota Safety Sense P
  • Dynamic radar cruise control system
  • Anti-lock brake system
  • SRS airbag system
  • Seat belt pretensioner system
    Be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding the installation of a mobile two-way radio system.

Vehicle data recording
The vehicle is equipped with sophisticated computers that will record certain data, such as:

  • Engine speed / Electric motor speed (traction motor speed)
  • Accelerator status
  • Brake status
  • Vehicle speed
  • The operation status of the driving assist systems
  • Images from the front camera (available only when certain safety systems are activated, which varies depending on the vehicle’s specifications).

The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options with which it is equipped.
These computers do not record conversations or sounds, and only record images outside of the vehicle in certain situations.

Data Transmission
Your vehicle may transmit the data recorded in these computers to Toyota without notification to you.

  • Data usage
    Toyota may use the data recorded in this computer to diagnose malfunctions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
    Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:

    • With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if the vehicle is leased
    • In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
    • For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
    • For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle owner
  • Recorded image information can be erased by your Toyota dealer.
    The image recording function can be disabled. However, if the function is disabled, data from when the system operates will not be available.
  • To learn more about the vehicle data collected, used and shared by Toyota, please visit www.toyota.com/privacyvts/.

Event data recorder

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

  • How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
  • Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
  • How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
  • How fast the vehicle was traveling.

These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

  • Disclosure of the EDR data
    Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except when:

    • An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is obtained
    • In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
    • For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
      However, if necessary, Toyota may:
    • Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance
    • Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner

Scrapping of your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt pre tensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply,
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These components may include airbags, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote control batteries.

WARNING

  • General precautions while driving
    Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury.
    Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents. Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or others.
  • General precautions regarding children’s safety
    Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
    Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.
