NHTSA Complaint #11445701 — 2017 TOYOTA COROLLA

My brakes seem to malfunction when engaged after hitting potholes and/or street depressions. This has occurred on Kensington Street east of Church Avenue. This is between Church Avenue and Dale Mabry Highway among other streets. My safety was put at risk as I felt the brakes were not going to hold or stop the vehicle. No, it has not been attempted to be duplicated. When my brakes were inspected, I was told everything was fine. It seemed no one was interested in driving the vehicle over a pothole and/or street depression. Why would it be inspected when a Toyota Dealership and Firestone reported my brakes were fine without duplicating the situation in which I had a problem. No warning lights, lamps, messages. My 2 front tires continually lose air down to 28 and 29 psi from the 32psi. I will be taking the car back to Firestone for them to check the two front tires that I purchased from them. In case something happens to me or others reporting this problem, I wanted proof I informed you of the issue I had. The contact stated the vehicle still makes a grinding noise when brakes are applied during and after rain. Also, the brakes were inspected but that wasn't the problem. Gettel Toyota mechanics stated the vehicle needed struts but instead Toyota replaced the shock absorber. The problem still occurs.
