    3 different concerns issue #1: while in motion the abs and brake light come on, speedometer goes to 0, other gauges go crazy. Happens off and on throughout the day while driving. Took it to a mechanic, they said it is the abs module going out, to fix it with a brand new part would be $1800. Not only is it dangerous to not be able to see my speed, its a possibility my abs wouldn't kick in if needed. Regular brakes…

    (1) abs module has an intermittent short. When it fails the speedometer stops working, abs and brake light on dash come on, temp gauge and tach fluctuate, and the a/c stops working. The short in module was diagnosed by a toyota dealer. I understand electrical components go bad but for it to effect the speedometer and a/c seems like a poor design. (2) on several occasions my engine oil light has come on. Apparently…

My local toyota dealership stated that my abs actuator/abs module is going out. This is the same year, make, and model of cars that people lost there lives due to brake issue.

The speedometer and tachometer will cease to indicate proper readings and drop to zero.

At the same time, the abs and parking brake warning lights illuminate and stay on for…
