Consumer Description

I HAVE BRAKES HYDRAULIC PROBLEM ON MY 2010 4RUNNER, I BROUGHT TO DEALER 3 TIMES IN THE PAST BUT THEY INSISTED THERE WAS NO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE BRAKE PADDLE WHEN DEPRESSED HAD HISSING SOUND, SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS AIR LEAKS SOMEWHERE..WHEN PRESSED DOWN THE BRAKE PADDLE, THE VEHICLE WOULD ACCELERATE A BIT THEN THE BRAKES HYDRAULIC APPLIED. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN I WAS ON FREEWAY WITH 70-80 MPH. IF YOU HAVE RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.. WITH THE ENGINE TURNS OFF, I STILL HEAR THE HISSING SOUND EVERY SINGLE TIME I STEP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. AND THE SERVICE ADVISER IN DEALER SAID ITS NORMAL??? AND THE BRAKES TOOK COUPLE MILLISECONDS TO RESPONSE WHEN BRAKE PEDAL COMPRESS??? *TR
