Consumer Description

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES ON THE PRIUS, BUT THE DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. YET YOU FIRST HIT THE BRAKES ON THEY ARE OK, BUT IF YOU HAVE TO HIT THEM HARD - NO BRAKES...YET THE DEALER CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. "THE COMPUTER DOESN'T SHOW ANYTHING WRONG" I GUESS I WILL HAVE TO KILL SOMEONE BEFORE I CAN GET THEM TO LISTEN AND FIX THE PROBLEM. THE LAST 12 YEARS HAVE BEEN A NIGHTMARE......WHY CAN'T WE GET THEM TO RECALL THIS? I SEEN SO MANY PEOPLE YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAME THING YET NOTHING IS DONE? *TR
