Brake Light On problems of the 2009 Toyota Corolla

Abs and brake lights came on. The mechanic tells me that both rear abs sensors are bad (codes c0210 and c0215). This is a Toyota Corolla 2009 le with only 81k miles and I hear the same problem exists in some friends's cars. We have lots of snow in cleveland area and it is ridiculous not to have abs working because of this problem. Looking at discussion groups, this sounds like a recall to me.

Abs and brake light turned on together. This is turning out to be a very common issue which is due to the corrosion of the sensors on the rare wheels. With abs light turned on, the vehicle is incapable of applying abs when required during brake, creating a high safety concern.

On Jan. 6th, we hit a deer about 10 miles from home, and through our insurance had the car taken to a local body shop where it was fixed. Repairs were made and a few months later the abs & brake light illuminated and wouldn't turn off. We contacted the insurance and they told us to take the vehicle back to the body shop, where they would send to Toyota for repairs. Toyota informed us that the abs actuator was bad and needed to be replaced. For insurance purposes, the body shop ordered a used lkq abs actuator. Two parts were ordered, the first one being incorrect, and was installed and we picked up the car. A few months later, to avoid being in a car accident, I slammed on the brakes and noticed the car pulled harshly to the left. I thought nothing of it until my spouse had slammed on the brakes to avoid a car pulling out in front of her, the car locked up, then started to skid to the left almost causing her to crash into the vehicle she was trying to avoid. We took the vehicle to Toyota to assess the problem, again, it was the actuator. Another lkq used actuator was purchased as per our insurance gmac, and it was the incorrect part. The correct part was ordered the 2nd and 3rd time, but both were damaged and unusable. Gmac finally allowed the body shop to order a new part via Toyota. This is the 6th actuator that was installed and we picked up our car on Aug. 30th 2013. The next day, I decided to slam on the brakes to test if they were working accordingly, and was surprised to discover that they pull extremely hard to the left. I don't feel safe driving the vehicle and really hope that the problem can be corrected. If the body shop and Toyota had realized the extent of the repairs from the beginning, the vehicle would've been considered totaled, the car is worth approx. $10,000. The total of all repairs done so far to-date since the accident are approx. $9500.

The contact stated that after driving approximately 1,000 miles the abs and brake light illuminated again on the dashboard. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The dealer stated that the right side hub, bearing assembly and skid control wiring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was being repaired by the dealer when the complaint was filed. The failure mileage was 62,583 and the current mileage was 64,322.

I experienced a failure of the brakes in my 2009 Toyota Corolla s. I was pulling out of the parking lot at work today and approaching a busy road to turn right onto. Approaching the turn at about 5 mph, I pushed the brake pedal lightly to gradually slow down to a stop to avoid entering the road into oncoming traffic. However, when the brake pedal was pushed, I heard a grinding noise and the car did not decelerate at all. It may have been the abs activating, despite the low speed and light pressure on the brake pedal. I tried applying more pressure to the brake, but there was still no deceleration. Only when I released the brakes completely (which is very hard to do when you're about to drive into oncoming traffic) and reapplied pressure to the brake pedal did the brakes engage and the vehicle stop. This is the first time I have had an issue with the brakes in nearly 20,000 miles of driving this vehicle.
