Description of the problem	We have a 2006 toyota highlander hybrid that has had problems with it's braking system. I have had the highlander cause me great worry on five occasions. The occasions are all the same. When i am coming to a stop, and have stopped the car, the highlander will accelerate forward. I have been able to use my brakes to stop the car so far. The incidences have been nerve wracking to say the least. I have called my toyota dealership, and the manager said he has never heard of any problems with my make and year. I know there is a problem. I use my highlander to drive my two young sons to all of their activities. Please help me in reporting this major problem.
