Vehicle Stability Control issue.
Have a look in the owner's manual, see if anything obvious is cited as potentially causing it which you can control/rectify.
If not, then it'd be worth contacting your local dealer to have it diagnosed, or a good independent who can service Toyotas.

Something makes me want to say ABS or speed sensor, but I could be (probably am) misremembering that from another thread - so best not latch on to that as a diagnosis or fix.

Gas cap not tightened all the way will give this code, check it out!

Same problem was fixed on my Ls 400 by cleaning out the throttle body with a spray, I also cleaned batt terminals. Not sure which helped but that did it.

Autozone can check your codes for free. Go from there.

I also had the "CHECK VSC" error code a couple years ago. Gas cap replacement fixed it right away.
