I HAVE A 2002 TOYOTA PRIUS THAT EXHIBITS THE SAME ACCELERATION AS IN THE 2010 RECALL. DURING BRAKING IF I AM TO HIT A MAN HOLE COVER OR POT HOLE THE CAR SEEMS TO LOSE THE ABILITY TO BRAKE AND SKIPS FORWARD. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD WHILE BRAKING. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR OVER 2 YEARS AND HAVE HAD THE BRAKES REPLACED WITHOUT RESOLVE. *TR
I BELIEVE TOYOTA HAS KNOWN OF THE BRAKING PROBLEM ALL ALONG. I PURCHASED NEW, A 2002 PRIUS. IN 2008 MY ANTI-LOCKING BRAKE SYSTEM WENT OUT. THE SERVICE MGR. TOLD ME IT NEEDED A NEW RELAY, AND HE COULD FIX IT FOR $1700. I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE SEEN A RELAY COSTING $1700. MY BRAKES STILL WORKED, JUST NOT PROPERLY SO I DIDN'T SPEND THE $1700. AS LONG AS TOYOTA CAN GET THEIR CUSTOMERS TO SPEND $1700. THERE IS NO NEED TO HAVE A RECALL. I HAVE AROUND 47000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND AM ON MY THIRD SET OF ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. MY TIRES ACTUALLY LAST LONGER. I BELIEVE THIS BRAKING PROBLEM HAS BEEN AROUND FROM DAY ONE. I THINK RAY LAHOOD SHOULD CHECK FREQUENCY OF THIS REPAIR AGAINST CUSTOMERS RECORDS, IT MIGHT REVEAL A CONSISTENT FAULT. *TR
