ON THE MORNING AUGUST 5, 2002 I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON I 270 FROM MY HOME IN FREDERICK MARYLAND TO MY PLACE OF WORK IN GAITHERSBURG MARYLAND WHEN I LOST MOST OF MY BRAKES I IMMEDIATELY EXIT THE HIGHWAY AND SLOWLY DROVE TO THE FITZGERALD TOYOTA WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR FOR REPAIR, THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE OF $1128.71 AND MY CAR IS NOT 3 YEAR OLD. SINCE THIS INCIDENT I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA CONSUMER CARE NUMEROUS TIMES WITH NO RESPONSE. MY QUESTION IS HAS ANY OTHER TOYOTA OWNER HAVE REPORTED THE SAME INCIDENT, AND SHALL I BE CONCERNED THAT THIS MALFUNCTION WILL HAPPEN AGAIN?
