Description of the problem	My brakes failed the first time on 1/29/14 on my way to work. Luckily, i wasn't going too fast, which allowed me to safely pull over onto one of the side streets. My car displayed the error message: "check vsc system." i called aaa, and one of their tow truck drivers suggested that rather than taking my car to the dealership, i use a different place (which he claimed was aaa approved; it wasn't). Nearly $500 later ($472. 94 to be exact), my car seemed fine for about a month. Then on 2/26/14, this time while driving on the interstate, my brakes failed again. I got the same message as before: "check vsc system." this time, i asked to be towed to the dealership. Supposedly, nobody at the dealership was aware of a recall for this systematic problem. However, i have since found out that 59 other complaints have been reported for this very issue. That's only through january; i can imagine how many other times this happened that were not reported. I ate the cost (this time upwards of $3,800) to have the entire vehicle suspension control (vsc) unit completely replaced. This morning, 4/21/14, i turned on my car & was greeted with that old familiar message: "check vsc system." i'm afraid to try driving my car to work in this condition, and meanwhile i've sunk over $4,000 into "repairs" that do not seem to last. I always thought toyotas were such good, reliable cars. However, i'm not sure if i would buy another one at this rate. My car has less than 100k miles and i'm extremely disappointed with this headache. Does someone have to die before toyota actually steps up & issues a recall??

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
