VSC light sporadically comes on
Occasionally the VSC light will come on when I first start my 2010 RX. It stays on for 30 seconds or so at which time it won’t move. It will go off and all’s well. I’ve searched and can’t seem to find anything but I’m sure something is going bad and I’d like to find out before it leaves me stranded.

You should have a repair shop pull codes and run diagnostics. It could be a number of things, including engine misfire. This is an 8 year old vehicle, with I trust, over 50,000 miles. It is not something for which you can just start replacing parts and hope it goes away.

Do a load test on your battery. Failing batteries do crazy things to these vehicles. When you say it won't move, are you referring to the vehicle not being able to move or the light doesn't move or turn off? please let us know what you find.
