I was driving on highway on speed of 65 miles per hour suddenly my power string and brakes failed. Luckily I didn't get an accident. After I came home and start researching I saw there are a lot of people with the same problem. Please make a recall for that maybe something happens to someone. Thanks.

I have been complaining of this same problem (my brakes fail also when going over rough roads) since I bought my 2006 Lexus Rx400h. They have been telling me its normal and deny its even a problem.

The agency received 124 reports from consumers, including four alleging that crashes occurred. Investigators have spoken with consumers and conducted pre-investigatory field work. ¿safety is our top priority, said transportation secretary ray lahood. ¿that is why in recent weeks NHTSA has also issued a consumer advisory on the recall of several models of Toyota vehicles and the pontiac vibe involving pedal entrapment and sticky accelerator pedals. We will continue to monitor these issues closely. ¿ news release.
