I was recently in an accident & had to get the right front suspension fixed. However, as I was leaving the repair shop my VSC, check engine light, & traction control signal came on. I told the shop which did my repairs and they scheduled a visit get it checked out. Well that day of the alignment check the signals all went away...The shop did a check and everything was fine. Now a few days later the lights all came back on again! The mechanic said usually the comp on the car will show a code as to whats wrong but he said there is nothing showing up...What is the deal??
Another issue I am having is when I go start up the engine its about to start but doesn't..Is this a key fob issue? I got the battery replaced but it still does the same thing...I never had any of the issues above with my car before the accident. Now I am bringing it into lexus to get checked out.

 

bump noone?!

 

No I've never seen or heard of that. Maybe next time it does that take it to the shop while the codes are on?

 

It could be anything from you forgetting to tighten your gas cap you basically needing a new engine. And in regards to the key fob issue. I haven't heard/read anything about that in the past and I'm pretty sure it has to do with your car and not the key fob

I would go to your car and tighten your gas cap. It takes a while for the lights to go away if this is the issue.

 

As far as the car starting, did you replace the key fob battery or the cars battery? I was gonna say it might be the car battery.

 

I was in an accident too and I got the same three exact error lights. The center display will show "Check VSC" but the Chech Engine light and traction light were both on too. However, the problem deals with VSC, when that comes on, it also triggers the CEL and traction light to come on too.

I did the repairs on my car myself for the most part and found it to be a damaged skid sensor wire on the right passenger side front. I replaced it and after driving it for a mile or two, all the lights went away. But two days later, it all came back. And it kept doing this for the next two weeks but now it doesn't come on anymore so I guess it's all good.

Go to Autozone if you don't want to go to the dealer for a scan. If they don't find any codes with their scanner, than you don't have engine light problem like me. It's a problem with your VSC.

 

Well come to find out the shop that did my work disconnected some hose that was causing the issue...Lexus said the shop will cover the labor since it was their fault. I got my car back & it was fine for over a week. Then all the sudden I started getting the issue again...I brought it to Lexus & they had my car for 4 days! They said they could not reproduce the issue...Sounded like total bs bc it happened to me many times. I just told them to give me my car back & lo and behold the next day it did it 3 times in a row & many times after...How could a tech or engineer not reproduce it and it happened to me on the spot as soon as I got my car back?? Shouldnt they be held liable for repairs since they said they repaired it the first time around but come to find out now they didnt??
