I have taken my 1 month certified newly purchased vehicle for what i describe as brakes/suspension problems. According to the dealership, they cannot find any problems with the car.

While driving in heavy traffic on city side street, vehicle in front stopped, i attempted to do the same, but unsuccessfully. My vehicle was a rental and rental company replaced it with an identical vehicle. Subsequent experimentation with said replacement showed what i believe is a weakness in the electronically controlled brake system. With one application of the brake pedal a certain percentage of brake power is…

Just another unsatisfied, unhappy, and scared for my life toyota owner! The repair for the recall for the accelerator pedal has not fixed the problem. It takes too much effort to apply the brakes and the accelerator sticks sometimes. Braking is becoming a major issue for me-i've never had to apply so much pressure before. I'm used to letting my foot off the gas, letting the car slow down itself, then gently applying…
