Consumer Description

My brake booster master cylinder and pump assembly went out while driving on the freeway. My brakes became soft and unresponsive, though I was able to exit the freeway without incident. My ABS light, brake light, and traction control lights all came on. The lights have since remained on and my brakes continue to malfunction. My local repair show diagnoses the issue with the diagnostic trouble code: C1391 Back in 2018, before I owned the car, Toyota offered an "extended warranty" to have the parts replaced for free for 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever came first. I'm past the year threshold but well short of the mileage one. I feel a recall should be made and the repair covered, as this is clearly a safety issue.
