Description of the problem | I drive a 2010 toyota prius and would like to report that when braking, if i hit a pot hole or bump, the car lunges forward or accelerates for a split second. I have had my car for just under 60 days but have had this experience at least a dozen times. It has not caused an accident, but leaves me feeling as if there are moments that i do not have control of my car. It's like it has a mind of it's own! |
