I was driving and arrived home and suddenly lost my braking and almost hit my house if I didn't steer the wheel towards my lawn and put on my parking brake it would have been a disaster. I felt so unsafe that I had my vehicle towed for repair and had to replace the brake master cylinder. Two weeks later, we went on a family trip and parked my vehicle with my family and it was on a slight slope and went to put on the parking brake and it was still slightly moving forward only to put my vehicle in reverse quickly in order in not drive into a lake with my family in the vehicle!!! I have just read the complaints and this is an ongoing problem since 2011 and I am quite shocked that this is not on recall!!! my wife has a prius v 2013 and have not had any problems at all, but has a recall on a brake hydro-boost pump fail for her vehicle, but nothing is wrong with her brakes, only the 2012 Toyota Highlander!!! please let me know what Toyota needs to do to get this this fixed!!! I know there are probably more that no one is reporting this and I guess there must be a fatality in order for Toyota to fix this problem!!!!.
