 Description of the problemI was traveling at 70 mph on the 210 east near pasadena, california, and under normal driving condition, the vehicle? S brakes failed near the mountain street exit. My immediate reaction was to use the hand brake, after which i pumped the brake pedal in an attempt to restore the mechanism. I was unsuccessful in doing so. Turning on the emergency lights, i traveled for about 2 miles, going through a tunnel, and took the first exit, lake avenue, off the freeway. I left vehicle at a friend? S place close to the exit. While attempting to restore the brakes all along, the car finally did stop on a side street near the exit. I was transporting three adults and a child in the car at this time. The vehicle was not involved in a crash, and accordingly there were no deaths or injuries. This is the first occurrence of an incident of this nature. I am the first owner of the vehicle. The vehicle was purchased from frontier toyota in valencia, california. Acting on the advice of the service representation at frontier toyota, who indicated that the vehicle had a warranty on it that would cover the towing, i had the vehicle towed to the dealership. Upon inspection, i was informed that the warranty would not cover the towing, and that the towing charges of $264. 00 had to be paid for the vehicle to be released. The vehicle was later inspected, and the brakes were certified as ? In good condition? By a mechanic at frontier toyota. The mechanic? S records that were furnished by the dealership indicated that the brakes had work done on them. The mechanic certified that the brakes pads were good, without addressing the inherent problem that exists with the entire breaking system. The breaks, as i experienced it while driving probably had an air leak in the pedal. I was extremely disappointed in the service provided at the dealership, and the basic overall performance of the vehicle.
