Our 2006 Toyota Sienna XLE is intermittently triggering the traction control/ABS on dry pavement, usually during a slow, gradual right-hand bend. The most recent instance would have tossed me into the driver seat if I didn't have my seatbelt on. Toyota has examined the vehicle, but because it is intermittent, they can't find anything wrong. There is an apparent TSB, but can't seem to find it
You can go to Aboutautomobile.com and follow the instructions for entering your year,make, and model. They have NHTSA TSB info and even the corrective action instructions.
On this site you can also WRITE a Complaint of an incident to forward to NHTSA for investigation.
The site offers Diagnostic Code Results.
I hope my solution is helpful. Please rate. You can get a scan of the vehicle free at Advance, Autozone, and Oreilys if they have this type of scanner.
I do not know the product line for this make. But if they have a Sister product, the defect may be listed for the other carline. Continue to check Aboutautomobile.com.

I had the same problem. The dealer said it is an emissions problem with a canister. They wanted almost $1300 to repair it. My vehicle had only 45000 miles so I complained to my regional office for help. They ended up providing the parts for free and I paid the labor which was still $275
