Description of the problem	2010 toyota 4runner, in this case a 4 wheel drive. Panic braking at 55mph+ is dangerous. If you suddenly remove your foot from the gas pedal and suddenly apply full braking pressure to the brake pedal, the car lurches downward into a nose dive so violently that in one case i would swear the rear tires lost contact with the road. The two times i have encountered this i was on dry pavement and it is scary, i can't imagine wet conditions. In the incident where i was traveling approx. 65 mph the braking application was so severe that i backed off the pedal completely and then attempted to apply brakes more gradually and i got a minimal response from the brakes. In other words, the computer was terribly confused and didn't know what to do. The car has under 10,000 miles and both incidents resulted in some tire skidding. The anti-lock brake sensor/software needs fixing along with the front suspension being stiffened.
