    My brake and abs lights come on intermittent. When the two lights come on the speedometer stops working and it's difficult to brake. 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. Toyota refuses to acknowledge and repair this issue.

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