Consumer Description

WHILE APPLYING MODERATE PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES ON MY 2010 PRIUS AND WHILE DRIVING OVER A BUMPY ROAD, THE BRAKES SEEM TO MOMENTARILY, BUT COMPLETELY FAIL. THEN THE CAR SEEMS TO BRIEFLY ACCELERATE (OR AT LEAST FREE-WHEEL) BEFORE THE BRAKES FEEL LIKE THEY'RE STARTING ENGAGE AND WORK AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH THIS NEW CAR SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASED IT IN JULY OF 2009. IT DOES IT EVERY SINGLE DAY, AS I DRIVE OVER THE SPEED BUMP WHILE DRIVING OUT OF THE PARKING GARAGE NEAR MY WORK. *TR
