THE ACTUATOR STARTS TO BUZZ EVERY FEW SECONDS TRYING TO KEEP PRESSURE IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM, BUT IT CANNOT DUE TO A LEAK IN THE ACCUATOR, IN WHICH THEN CAUSES THE ABS SYSTEM TO DEACTIVATE, A KNOWN PROBLEM OF THE LEXUS CT200H, MANY OF THE OTHER LEXUS HAD THIS PROBLEM AS A RECALL AS WELL- LEXUS SHOULD BE FIXING THIS FOR PEOPLE ITS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE BRAKES START TO NOT WORK OUT OF NO WHERE AND ITS NOT FAIR TO THE OWNER TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ENORMOUS BILL TO FIX WHEN ITS A KNOWN PROBLEM OF LEXUS!
