 Description of the problemTwice in the past two days, i was driving down the road and my abs and check vsc lights came on. The first time, nothing appeared to happen to the vehicle other than the lights. Today however, i was driving at highway speed when the lights came on. Luckily, i was approaching congested traffic and i was able to slow down naturally. As i came to the traffic and was driving at roughly 15mph, i tried to depress the brake and it went directly to the floor and did not apply any brake pressure or stop the car in any way. I pumped the brakes while veering onto the shoulder. The car did not stop at all and i was forced to coast to a stop on the shoulder of a 5 lane highway, where speeds often reach 70mph or higher. I restarted the vehicle, the lights turned off and i was able to drive the rest of the way home. I called local toyota dealerships and made an appointment to check the car. They are going to charge me $110 for the diagnosis of the vehicle, which is all i know at this point. I also independently researched the warning lights and found articles stating that this is happening fairly frequently and that the nhtsa is investigating. That article also stated that the repair can cost upwards of $2,200. The car is absolutely unfit for the road. I can't drive a vehicle where the breaks could stop working at any moment and with very little warning. There does not appear to be any issue with the breaks themselves, when working properly. It appears to be purely a computer problem that causes the breaks to not engage.
