| Description of the problem | Driving my camry hybrid this morning on the way to work, stopped by gas station for snacks and drink, brake system completely failed upon backing out of my stall. Brakes would not work going forward or in reverse. "check vsc system" message appeared on my dash. Looked it up in owners manual. Told me brakes worked but to drive slow. Immediately drove home. Had to stop at multiple four way stops, nearly wrecked twice. Vehicle is very dangerous. Luckily no one was hurt or killed. This is a major safety issue that toyota needs to resolve! Turns out it is my abs accumulator, toyota wants $2500 to fix. I want toyota to fix it for free since it is a safety system malfunction on a low mileage vehicle. |
