Tl* the contact owns a 2007 lexus rx400h. the contact stated that while driving at 40 mph, the brake pedal was depressed and felt abnormally soft. the contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to harvey lexus located at 2550 28th st se, grand rapids, mi 49512, (616) 949-1010, to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the computer control module failed and needed to be repaired. the contact stated that the vehicle was repaired. the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 13v396000 (electrical system). the manufacturer was not notified of the failure with the vehicle. the approximate failure mileage was 110,000.

The abs actuator is making a creaking noise when the car is not moving and i am stepping on the brake. the noise goes away when i am stepping on the brake very lightly or when i let go of the brake. i googled this problem and i have seen a lot of people having this same kind of problem. on the lexus forum they said that there is a recall on this but i could not find the recall document.

Brakes did not apply as expected, experiencing a significant "push" while braking at low speed. it was so obvious that i had to step on the brake pedal to keep the car from running out into the car in front. this one time i crashed into front car. i took it to dealer to check the brakes, and he is saying they are hybrid and thats how they work. this is not acceptable as the brakes are meant to stop the vehicle with immediate effect. this is not happening with my rx 400h, i bought this car in sep 2014 and within 2 months i met with accident. i never had history of accident with other cars. *tr
