SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
STARTING THE FIRST WEEK IHAD THE VEHICLE THE BRAKES WERE "NOT RIGHT" AND SEEMED TO MALFUNCTION INTERMITTENTLY ABOUT EVERY TWO DAYS UNTIL I FINALLY WENT THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP. THE DEALER CALIMS IT'S THE ABS BUT I'VE DRIVEN ABS VEHICLES FOR THE LAST 5 YRS WITHOUT EXPERIENCING THIS. THE SERVICE DEPT WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM ONCE AND STILL CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG W/ THE CAR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND HAVE WRITTEN A COMPLAINT TO TOYOTA CORPORATE WHO CLAIMS THERTE HAS BEEN NO OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS NATURE. *AK
