uh-oh this can't be good...
My wife just called me saying lights came on while she was driving. ABC, VSC OFF, TRAC lights are on. Wow We just had it for little over a week and already having issues. Anyone have any idea what this code/light indicates? Dealer might charge too much for these kind of problems. It's a 04 GX470 with 58k miles on them.
thanks,
Tae

If you bought it as is,you may be out of luck. Did you call the dealer that you purchased it from yet?I would see if they will make good on it being that you have only had it a week.

I agree with Craig,shop around for an extended warranty.Even minor things that go wrong can be expensive to fix. In my opinion its well worth it given all the electronics on the car .

Thats weird that an oxygen sensor caused the lights to come on. Do you mind sharing what it cost to fix that problem?It may give hoonami an idea of what he can expect to pay. By the way,do you know how many oxygen sensors are on the car?

Okay I went to Lexus Dealer and paid them $135 for diagnose it and found out Skid Control ECU needs to be replaced which cost little over $2000. Parts alone was pretty damn expensive($1600). Now called the used car dealer where I got my GX from to see if they had any extended warranty available, they are looking into it. Anyone have any experiences with NON-LEXUS warranty? anything good/bad? So as of now my ABS and VSC is not working.

Get a quote from Warranty Direct. You might have a waiting period
before you can claim this repair. I would wait and get an extended
warranty if your used car dealer won't help out with the repair costs...
