Owner of a newly acquired '00 Lx470 from Toyota/Lexus. When I purchased the car, it passed safety and mechanic inspection. After owning for less than 4 months, I was driving home on street roads. The abs light comes on suddenly, and I hear a high-pitched beeping noise from the dash. Read details...
A rapid discharge of brake fluid occurred from the abs valve body on the master cylinder. I drove the vehicle that day and parked it in the driveway. About an hour later I went out to move it and when I did there was a large puddle where it was parked. Read details...
There was no indication of a expected total brake failure while driving the vehicle. But when it did occur, we did have a cel come one and luckily, wife was in a parking lot and driving slowly. This had been my wife/daughter's main means of moving around. Read details...
