Abs brake actuator failed, this malfunction came out of nowhere, making me unable to stop my car and putting my life at risk. I have not seen any official recall on this from Toyota, but I’ve seen many people have this same specific issues on Toyota forums. The abs, brake, and slip light came on all at once while my car made a continuous beeping sound. This all happened as my brakes went out.
Had the vehicle progressively speed up at a high rate of speed was not due to the floor mats as that had been fixed along time ago on a recall before . I had to throw the car in neutral and then push the brake and power button for the vehicle to slow down safely ( happened twice ) . Both times not back to back on occasions months in between . Then one day had issues with the brakes and the vehicle not wanting to stop had the issue looked at by certified mechanic said my physical brakes on all sides front and back were visible sound and nothing to be causing the issue I was having . Just the other day started the vehicle as normal it warmed up went thru my day and then my radio still visible but sayin insert maps dvd ( that’s the only thing it would say or do ) then the vehicle after turning it off says check vsc system ( had certified mechanic ) come to home to inspect vehicle for issues ( car no longer showed this on dash) started as normal then next day while driving no brakes red triangle of death came up said check vsc again and brakes failed and I nearly rear ended someone thank god avoided the accident car then shut off ( car restarted then triangle once more immediately shut off ) car starts high idle brakes hard to push on mechanic says it’s a faulty issue with harness or abs pump and ecm components which may be causing the battery failure I’ve had multiple times and that the vehicle isn’t safe to drive due to this issue .
Dash cluster showed brake light and bas light on, tachometer and speedometer dropped to zero while going approx. 40 mph.
On July 11, 2021, my husband and I were driving to a location not far from our house, on a state road with a 45 mph speed limit, when "check hybrid system" and "check vsc system" warnings began alternately appearing and I lost acceleration. I turned on my hazard lights and was eventually able to pull off on the side of the road. I turned off all power then restarted, at which point the engine resumed working and we were able to continue driving, but the "check hybrid system" and engine light warnings remained on. We were able to reset the computer system by disconnecting the negative terminal of the auxiliary battery (which had been replaced a few months ago) for ten minutes, but I travel over 700 miles at least monthly to take care of my elderly blind father, and I don't want this to happen while I'm driving on I-95, when it's much more likely to result in a serious accident or fatality.
Vsc check system is on at all times and my car doesn't start at all.
Vsc, abs, air lights are on. Makes a peak sound when I start my car. It stays for a long time and goes away. During this time break does not work as normal. Feels hard to press break and unable to stop the car. Yesterday when I'm driving suddenly sound came on and I was unable to stop the car as I normally can. When I try to press the break. Break does not apply.
Vcs system light on brake light warning light abs light.
The abs sensor/module has gone out again. I spent several thousands in repairs and diagnostics years ago for the same issue. Now it has gone crazy again. The dash has been replaced due to being sticky. The car itself burns oil, we are constantly checking and adding to it. It seems several have had these issues and Toyota should be fixing them.
While driving my 2007 Camry on a town highway, I smelled something burning. Smoke started to fill the cabin, and I saw a glowing flame where the seat warmer button is, on the console. Immediately, I turned off the seat warmer button. I looked for a place to pullover, heard a loud popping sound, saw a larger flame and black smoke filled the car. I pulled over to a shell station, called 911, and a man with fire extinguisher sprayed the now considerable fire burning . The battery was disconnected after the fire was out, and the damage to the car is not repairable. A tow car brought it home. The fire was electrical when it started and then escalated quickly. . My question is why did the fuse not blow to prevent the fire? thank god I was in a town near a service station and not alone on an isolated road. The fire grew very quickly. This just happened this evening on 11/19/19. It was a definite safety issue, and it was pretty frightening how quickly the fire escalated. I am going to contact Toyota about this malfunction as well. The case # by the st. James parish sherifff's office is sjp19002613. I called 911 and 4 police cars and fire truck were deployed and came to the scene.
Tl- the contact owned 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated while driving at a slow speed, when the vehicle began to shake forcefully. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated when depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle began to drive normally. The contact stated he was able to drive to his residence.

The failure mileage was 43,000. Dp.
3 different concerns issue #1: while in motion the abs and brake light come on, speedometer goes to 0, other gauges go crazy. Happens off and on throughout the day while driving. Took it to a mechanic, they said it is the abs module going out, to fix it with a brand new part would be $1800. Not only is it dangerous to not be able to see my speed, its a possibility my abs wouldn't kick in if needed. Regular brakes work fine.
Tl the contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the instrument cluster was inoperable. Additionally, on one occasion while driving, the brake pedal was depressed and the trunk became ajar. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 98,000.
The break light and abs light come one and all gauges stop working and just start jumping around. The ac doesn't work when this happens. This happens while idol and while driving. If driving, I can't tell how fast I'm going because the gauges stop working. This happens at random times then goes back to normal but seems to be happening more frequently.
Instrument panel (dashboard) is sticky. Safety issue is sticky dashboard is throwing a glare up on windshield, making it harder to see thru windshield clearly. This happens at any time of daylight. This is a recognized Toyota manufacturing defect. Issue has been confirmed by local Toyota dealer and also Toyota customer service. No other inspection has been done. Problem began about 2018.
Tl the contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the brakes made a weird, clicking noise. Also, the brakes seized while the brake pedal was being depressed. In addition, all the warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact also stated that the vehicle made beeping sounds while driving. The contact drove the vehicle to southern 441 Toyota (9205 southern blvd, royal palm beach, FL 33411, 561-693-1393) where they diagnosed that the brakes were faulty and the battery was defective. The parts were replaced; however, the failure continued. The contact took the vehicle to several independent mechanics to be serviced, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.
(1) abs module has an intermittent short. When it fails the speedometer stops working, abs and brake light on dash come on, temp gauge and tach fluctuate, and the a/c stops working. The short in module was diagnosed by a Toyota dealer. I understand electrical components go bad but for it to effect the speedometer and a/c seems like a poor design. (2) on several occasions my engine oil light has come on. Apparently there are issues with excessive oil consumption in some model Toyotas with piston rings flaws. Dealer has done oil consumption tests but unable to reproduce problem.
Hood open warning light on dashboard and chime activates while driving on surface streets and freeway. I stop to check hood and it is secure. Light and alarm will clear and then a few miles later it will go on again. When car is parked and car alarm is activated, the car alarm will start sounding off in the middle of the night, with nobody near the vehicle. I have read that other owners have had these two conditions also, and believe these two conditions are related. It is an annoyance to my neighbors as well as myself, and if driving on the road this could cause an accident if pulling over to check the hood latch to silence alarm and warning light. This has now happened numerous times in the past two months.
The abs & brake light comes in and when it does the speed motor goes to 0 and also is the air conditioner is on it goes straight to blowing hot air.
Car was park and shut off and a few minutes later the car was smoking front passenger side of vehicle and caught fire.
The excelerator pedel has a slight play in it when you first step down on the pedel.
Basically the abs actuator it's failing like in the hybrid model but are not covered by the Toyota extended warranty which is completely unfair as the part failing it's the same basic abs part but on different non-electric variant.
Abs and brake light intermittently on. When on - the speedometer goes to zero while car is moving. Rpm and water temp gauge go all over. While brake and abs lights on the a/c is blowing hot air while on max cold. All of the above occurs while moving or idle.
My brake and abs lights come on intermittent. When the two lights come on the speedometer stops working and it's difficult to brake. My local Toyota dealership stated that my abs actuator/abs module is going out. This is the same year, make, and model of cars that people lost there lives due to brake issue. Toyota refuses to acknowledge and repair this issue.
On highway at 65 mph, speedometer needle suddenly dropped to zero at same time abs and brake lights lit up on dash. After a few minutes, abs and brake dash lights turned off at the same time speedometer needle jumped back to current speed indication. No loss of power either way, but has been cycling between for the past week. Not limited to specific speeds of amount of time engine has been running, as it occurs at various speeds and various times.
The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the abs module failed. The contact stated the gauges on the instrument panel and the traction control would fail when the abs module failed. The abs warning and emergency brake indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the abs module needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 82,000.
My car is dying when is running and the steering wheel get lock and doesn't matter what speed I go everything turns off so please let me know what it coud be because doesn't show any check engine light or anything please help.
The short circuiting of the abs actuator has hit me too. This happened on 03/22/2017 to my 2007 Camry le. It first came up when I was waiting at a red light. The abs and brake light came up and even when the car started moving, the speedometer wasn't moving. I took the vehicle to the service center and was told that the abs actuator needs to be replaced. It is going to cost me $2500. I do not want to spend almost half of the car's worth on replacing this part when I won't be surprised if another part blows up. Looks like this is a very common issue with the 2007 Camry model. I am surprised that Toyota is not extending the warranty offered to the hybrid model to the non hybrid one. This is indeed a manufacturing issue and should be fixed. Or is it going to take a few accidents before Toyota accepts its fault. Fuel gauge, tacometer, speedometer don't work NHTSA action number: pe14001 covers just hybrid model however the it's the same same part: brake actuator.
I have a 2007 Toyota Camry that has intermittent instrument cluster problems. Odometer does not increment miles traveled. The speedometer and tachometer will cease to indicate proper readings and drop to zero. The tachometer will then bounce between zero and what I can only assume is a close approximation of the actual engine rpm. At the same time, the abs and parking brake warning lights illuminate and stay on for the duration of the "episode".
The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle stalled. The air bag, abs, check engine, and other warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was restarted, but the failure recurred shortly afterwards. The contact mentioned that the failure was intermittent and occurred on several occasions. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 95,000.
I was driving into my garage and had just braked to let it ease in. My foot was still on the brake, when the car suddenly revved and lunged forward. The brake would not work, and it was as if the car had a mind of its own. It hit the crate that was in front of the wall, and forced a bike rack through the wall. The front bumper of my car was cracked in places. The car then stopped. So scary! I immediately called my dealership and was told they could not talk to me. I needed to call the corporation, which I did. After two months of waiting on a decision, I was told there is nothing wrong with my car, and that's that. I have since learned that there have been other incidents with Toyotas just like mine. I am petrified to drive the car, and yet I am also afraid to pass it on to someone else. I don't want anyone hurt. I have called Toyota, and they do not return my calls I am wondering what I can do.
The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. While driving 50 mph, the entire instrument panel illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the abs actuator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The VIN and failure mileage were unknown.
Car was recently shipped from overseas. When I got my car, the dash lights will not go off, the abs motor will not shut off causing my battery to drain constantly, speedometer will not work, gas gauge moves slow, engine shakes and feels like it is going to cut off. The car was stationary and in motion. Car air condition occasionally blows hot air.
Dealership found the abs actuator had failed. Symptoms included: abs and parking break lights randomly turn on while driving. Speedometer will stop working and tachymeter will start to bounce. A/c also blows warm. There are several cases of this found online and per consumer reports the 2007 Camry hybrid experienced problems with the abs actuator as well.
On an intermittent basis, brake and abs indicator lights illuminate on instrument panel, tachometer and speedometer are inoperative or indicator needles jumping, temperature gauge inoperative, a/c not functioning. Occurs while driving and when stationary. Based on internet research other drivers state problem is with abs ecu. Dealer indicates Toyota will not fund repair. Based on apparent frequency of problem, Toyota should cover cost of repair. Per dealer, part costs about $1700.
Speedometer, tachometer and temperature gauge either stop working, or bounce around, out of control. The blower for the ac works, but when the condition exists, there is no cold air. Things are normal at a cold start, but deteriorate from there, stationary or all types of driving.
