| Description of the problem | While slowing down for a stop light speed was around 45 mph i experienced a sudden drop in brake pressure causing me to apply hard pressure in order to keep from hitting the vehicle in front of me stopping but inches from the other vehicles bumper. When the loss of brake pressure was happening i also noticed multiple lights came on and after the stop on the display there was a check vsc system message that will not extinguish. This morning it is still in the same condition. I called the service center and they told me a diagnostic check would be around 105. 00 dollars. I have since done research and have seen multiple issues with this and the cost of repair(upwards of 3,000) is ridicules. If this is a manufactures defect and know problem toyota needs to do the right thing and fix the issue before someone has a major accident. This item abs actuator needs to be looked at as the culprit. I need my car to get to work but who can afford 3,000. 00 at the drop of a hat and do i want to risk my life. |
