Description of the problem | I have a 2007 tacoma pick-up truck. The brakes have faded or malfunctioned 4 times with the vehicle. The dealership has looked at it and the factory reps have looked at it and cant find anything wrong. I went through one intersection and crossed two meridians into traffic with no brakes or very little. It also did it one time behind a semi whre i could not stop as he was braking. It seems to act up when the air-conditioning is on along with the cruise control or just the air-conditioning. I cant really tell when it is going to happen. Eventually, i am going to get killed or someone else is. Please help respectfully, andrew w. Ejma smc usn retired |
