 Description of the problem'check vsc system' along with brake light warning, abs warning, and pretty much every other warning light possible came on my 2007 camry hybrid around june of 2012. I hear pulsating under the hood constantly & when i turn on my car while in park with my foot on brake my car will begin to roll backwards by itself, i attempt to pump the breaks but it never works. I have to wait about 5-10 sec like there is a delay with my brake system when i first turn on my car. Once the brakes finally kick in my car will either jolt in very drastic way like i slammed on my brakes even though my foot has been on the brakes the whole time or it will throttle back on its own like i'm pushing on the gas. I will never park on a hill in fear of my car just taking off on its own with no brakes to stop it. I have to literally turn on my car and wait for my breaks to kick in before i can reverse. It is very scary! It has happened to me once as well when i was driving and i coming to a stop, my brakes just went out and kicked back in on its own. I brought my car to a toyota dealership to have them check it out. They brought back a quote of $5,900! Instead of trying one thing at a time they just wanted to replace everything at once. My car was right at the 5 year warranty mark but because i bought my car in guam they couldn't tell if my car was still under warranty and i would have to pay out of pocket. 2007 only 45000 miles with a 6 thousand dollar repair! That is insane let alone it is a hybrid feature & a safety issue! To me this should be covered under warranty no matter what! Look online you can see hundreds of people complaining about this exact issue! People have even made websites for it! I'm very disappointed in toyota. I'm stuck with this car that i cant afford to fix! So i drive every day in what seems to me like a death trap! It's just not right.
