Consumer Description

MY 2002 TOYOTA PRIUS BRAKES SOMETIMES DON'T WORK WHEN STOPPING AT A SLOW SPEED. IT HAPPENS WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND POTHOLES. THE BRAKE TAKES A SECOND BEFORE MAKING CONTACT WITH THE BRAKE PAD. IT CAN HAPPEN ALSO WHEN GOING OVER MULTIPLE BUMPS AND POTHOLES LEAVING THE CAR UNABLE TO BRAKE FOR A FEW SECONDS. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP ON THIS ISSUE. *TR
