Consumer Description

I HAVE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MY 2007 PRIUS WITH BRAKING AND TRACTION CONTROL IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS (RAIN, SNOW, ICE), AND ON SLIPPERY OR UNEVEN SURFACES (RAILROAD/TROLLEY TRACKS, MANHOLE COVERS, ETC.). I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALER SEVERAL TIMES STARTING IN THE SUMMER OF 2007 AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. THE CAR SEEMS TO LURCH OR SLIDE UNDER THESE CONDITIONS WHICH IS ALARMING EVEN AT VERY LOW SPEEDS. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT FLASHES, AND THERE IS A MOMENTARY INABILITY TO BRAKE OR STOP THE CAR. *TR
