Brake warning light stayed lit after starting vehicle. Brakes were not as effective in stopping vehicle. Took vehicle in for service check. Dealer states the brake booster has to be replaced and the ecu needs to be reflashed. Error code c1141. Would not expect the brake booster to have this short of a life.
While I was driving on freeway at 65 mph, the brake pedal went down to the floor and made a loud grinding sound. The dashboard flashed warning lights "brake" and a 2nd warning of "check brake system". I immediately pulled over and consulted the manual which said stop immediately and contact Toyota dealer, which I did. I took the car in to lipton Toyota, sunrise, FL (it was near death experience on the freeway). By the time I reached the dealer the brake lights went out. They called later and informed me nothing was wrong. I asked them to recheck as I knew something was wrong since the brake did not function properly and made a terrible noise. They kept the car until the following morning to recheck the car, and again said nothing was wrong. It happened twice one at 22k and another at 24k miles.
Under 15000 miles under city driving conditions. 2015 se trim. Brake light and "check brake system" message appreared on the center console. On the way to the dealership, brakes failed to work and I panicked and pumped more than once. Heard a "thud" noise and lo and behold the brake light and the message disappeared. Dealer confirmed that there was a maintainence code (with the scanner) and that they are replacing "brake booster". Vehicle still under warranty so luckily I dont have to pay anything. How is Toyota able to get away without a recall of faulty brakes? how many folks will have to get hurt or die before an action is taken.
Brake warning light has come on 6 time since 9/16. Once while driving on freeway, once while backing out of garage, other times when braking hard.
While driving my brake alarm went off and the brake light would not go off. The brakes where hard to press and to stop. I took the car to Toyota and found that the "brake boosters" have failed. I was told Toyota knows about the issue but not enough cars to do a recall. They only posted a bulletin for them . I can't believe my life was in their hands and was never told because not enough people are having an issue. They replace the part but now I feel unsafe in a new car. . .
While driving at approximately 35 mph, I stepped on the brake to stop at a red light. The brake pedal went down to the floor and made a loud grinding sound. The dashboard flashed warning lights "brake" and a 2nd warning of "check brake system". I immediately pulled over and consulted the manual which said stop immediately and contact Toyota dealer, which I did. I took the car in to auto nation in weston, FL (I was very close when this happened). By the time I reached the dealer the brake lights went out. They called later and informed me nothing was wrong. I asked them to recheck as I knew something was wrong since the brake did not function properly and made a terrible noise. They kept the car until the following morning to recheck the car, and again said nothing was wrong. They informed me the car didn't know it did anything wrong, my reply was that I knew the car did something wrong. (the service ticket reads: "performed health check, no problem found, no repairs performed") I am very reluctant to drive the car now.
