 Description of the problemMy 6-cylinder camry xle was wrecked in an accident because the brakes failed the pedal would not depress. The camry was serviced regularly at a toyota dealer. It had less than 49,000 miles on it and was in excellent condition. At the time of the accident, the road, weather, and visibility were good. I wasn't speeding, texting, phoning, eating, drinking, or being distracted from driving in any way. There was only one cause for the accident the brake pedal would not depress. Only seconds before i used the brake twice at low speeds. It was not human error. It was mechanical failure. Other cases involving the camry 2007 have been reported on the u. S. Department of transportation, national highway traffic safety administration's (nhtsa) complaint web portal, edmunds. Com and carcomplaints. Com. Similar to the other incidents, there was no warning; i had applied my brakes at stops only seconds earlier. It was a harrowing experience. I couldn't stop for a red light and crashed with another car. I saw the red light with plenty of time to stop if only the brakes had worked! I and the other driver walked away, but my car was totaled and the other driver's car was damaged. Similar to the other incidents, toyota could not detect or replicate the problem. But that does not mean it didn't exist. This is a very dangerous situation that must be addressed. It is my opinion that toyota should issue a recall to the public. I've talked to a couple of master mechanics and they quickly replied that the problem was a power brake assist failure. Despite my phone calls to toyota's north american headquarters and ultimately a letter to the ceo, toyota denied responsibility and my claim.
