PARKING BRAKE IS FROZEN. MY PRIVATE MECHANIC EXPLAINED THIS MODEL YEAR USES A WHITE METAL THAT CORRODES VERY EASILY. I WAS NOT ABLE TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BREAK WHILE PARKED ON A HILL ON A CITY STREET. I'VE ATTACHED A PICTURE OF THE PARTS THAT SHOW THE CORROSION. I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND REPLACE THIS PART FOR SAFETY REASONS, AND REIMBURSE CUSTOMERS WHO HAD THE PART REPLACED. (300+ DOLLARS)
