 Description of the problemI bought a new 2007 toyota rav4 at the end of the model year. I had problems with the brakes and the car shook and made noises. I took it to the dealer who replaced the front brakes and said it scored the drum and they had to be turned at 33,000 approx miles, under warranty as it was defective parts. But the rear brakes were suppose to be fine. This is a little over a year later and at 47,000 miles and i have had the brakes inspected at the dealership with every 5000 mile oil change and told they were good. Last week i was going down a steep grade and the brakes were a major problem and i could hardly stop my car, the brakes grabbed, the car shook and was hard to steer and i had to pump the brakes, etc.. I took it to the dealer and they said the rear brakes are not only bad but scored the drums and had to be replaced. I am having to pay over $200. 00 for defective parts and i could have been killed, plus i had a passenger and it was scary. I have had special driver training so i was able to control the car and there were no other vehicles around, thank god, but the car was unsafe and the dealer has so far taken no responsibility. Toyota is waiting for a reply??? From the dealer. I feel this should all be reported for safety and consumer awareness reasons.
