As i was driving a loud noise came on inside the car my abs light and brake light came on and then my brakes failed almost causing a huge wreck and from what i have read it is the abs accutator or brake accutator which i guess is the same thing but apparently a lot of the toyota camry hybrids are having this issue where the breaks are failing and causing accidents but yet there are no recalls for it and apparently the part cost 2,900 from toyota which is insane when it should be a recall because it's a major safety issue
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry hybrid. while driving 40 mph in the cold rain, the contact had to exert extra pressure to the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. all the warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. the vehicle was taken to toyota of surprise (13543 n autoshow ave, surprise, az 85388, (623) 469-6027), but was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 131,454.
Vehicle was in motion going straight on a city street, and "check vsc system" notification turned on. brake light, abs light, and (!) all came on. brakes became shaky when pressed.
I got in my vehicle today in the vsc light came on. i have researched over google, and everything points to a $3,000 repair, or a recall repairable by toyota. i would like to see if i am eligible for that recall repair.
Brakes did not activate, went very soft and pushed to the floor. "check vsc system" message, brake light, traction control light, and another light (in attached image) all came on after the brakes gave out. i was able to use the emergency brake to stop the car off the side of the road. turn the car off and back on. brakes worked again, but all of the warnings are still on. also, seems like the it's just regular brakes and anti-lock system is not working.
Few days ago while driving - the warning "check vsc system" indicator came on with four warning lights - brakes, exclamation traction control, abs and skid control. suddenly brakes started acting strangely and soft and jerky. took the vehicle to fred anderson toyota and after diagnostic test was told that it is code 1392 which requires replacement of abs control module (the cost to replace was quoted as $2875.37 - we declined to get it fixed. called toyota customer service - they reviewed my complaint but declined to help.
Check vsc & hybrid system lights went on and now my brakes are acting funny.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry hybrid. while driving 60 mph, the vehicle failed to respond when the brake pedal was depressed and the vehicle jerked. in addition, the traction control, emergency brake, and vehicle stability control warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to toyota chula vista (650 main st, chula vista, ca 91911, (619) 591-0900) who stated that the vehicle was not covered under the extended warranty and provided a repair quote. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was contacted and did not assist. the failure mileage was 204,000.
Was driving when my brakes went soft and my vsc warning popped up on my dashboard .never had a issue with car till now.i have about 160k miles on it.looked online and looks like a lot of people are having the same issues with there car.
I was driving my vechicle yesterday that was just in the shop since saturday saying that they replaced everything that was wrong because previously my breaks locked up on i-95 and i couldn't stop. i got the vechicle back yesterday and i was driving home from work and my breaks failed again causing me to rear end the person in front of me. i could not stop. absolutely no breaks!! the vechicle was in motion trying to come to a complete stop. i believe the abs break aculator / module in the vechicle is bad. the company whom i bought it from i believe should take responsibility for this accident considering they're the ones who stated they fixed the vechicle
My vehicle's brakes failed resulting in rear-ending the car in front. this happened on a freeway going straight at 10 am. my vehicle was moving at about 20 miles/ hr when i stepped forcefully on the brake pedal as the car in front of me slowed but i did not lurch forward, my seat belt did not tighten to pull me back and my bag pack that was on the front passenger leather seat stayed where it was. my vehicle behaved as if i had not braked. when i stepped on the brakes, i could see asphalt between my vehicle and the vehicle in front. my vehicle's front bumper, grill and hood was damaged. the vehicle immediately in front of mine had dents on the rear bumper and the trunk. there was a third vehicle in front of the one in front of mine that was also damaged, however, i do not know the extent of the damage. the impact occurred at a low speed which did not cause my seat belt to tighten and did not cause my backpack on the passenger seat to slide forward.
The vsc system lights are going off. the brakes are not working when you turn the car on and then it jolts suddenly. now a beep is going off every time i start my car.
My car has all of the light on dashboard is on and on screen it says "check vsc system"
Abs actuator is broken, there wan an extended warranty on the hybrids up until 150,000 miles.
Wife and kids were coming home and brakes went to the floor and abs lights came on. took the car to a mechanic and mechanic stated to contact toyota for open recall and service campaign. toyota is no help whatsoever
