| Description of the problem | 2010 toyota highlander limited hybrid--braking problems. When the brakes are first applied, they are soft and mushy. If you slam on the brakes in an emergency, they stop, but in everyday stop and go traffic, the brake pedal goes down but doesn't seem to engage until you really put some weight on it. This has been going on since i bought the car 2 months ago. |
