1 Brake Disc Caliper problem

Failure Date: 10/10/2017

I was on a decline on the off ramp, and when I went to stop for a lite, my brakes would not stop my car. I tried to stop, and felt as if the car sped up. I had complained to the dealer and had them check my breaks four times because of a stopping issue. Shortly before my crash my breaks would screech, and I thought it to be durt on my breaks, or break dust. I had taken the car to a recommended break shop to get my breaks checked out. They said the break pads, roders, calipers etc were in good condition with only one or two issues. I asked them to replace the roders, and break pads with oem parts. The issue now sits with the breaks being depressed as hard as one can depress them, only to have the car not stop, and feel like it was speeding up. At the time of the crash, you could hear the motoar speeding up even with my foot only on the break and clearly the car would not stop.

2 Brake Disc Caliper problem

Failure Date: 09/05/2011

I bought a brand new Toyota Corolla 2011 right off the lot and the caliper began seizing. The car would thrust to the left while braking at high speeds. The caliper was replaced by Toyota under warranty, however the problem has began reoccurring intermittently now at 60,000 miles.
