| Description of the problem | Hi nhtsa, seems like our 2006 toyota camry vehicle has persistent ineffective brake booster problem for few years. We have changed the break master cylinder assembly recently and even after the repair, vehicle doesn't stop within safe stopping distance,the root cause seems to be stemming from ineffective booster. Apparently brake booster system supposed to last life time of the car cause of expensive parts and labor amounting to almost 5% of the actual cost of car. I would like to request nhtsa to reach out to toyota corporation and have all the faulty brake booster systems be repaired on all make and models of toyota at free of cost to the customer. Very respectfully, -[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). *tt |
