Going down the straight part of a steep hill just prior to a curve, went to use the brakes but they didn't respond. Car kept speeding up so i kept foot on the brakes and attempted to turn the wheel to the right for the curve, but car wouldn't slow down so i kept brake pressed down and ended up crashing into a curb and tree. *tr

Loss of braking when hitting slight bump with one front tire. This has occurred numerous times when front wheels contact a slippery patch or rough spots. The vehicle feels like all braking is lost for a moment, much like has been reported for 2010 camry models. This is a camry hybrid model. *tr

I find that the braking is controlled by the abs system, which is not responding to my request for a very quick stop. In most of these incidences my brake pedal will bottom out. I reported this problem when the car was serviced, 11/7/08, and was…

It can cause accidents. There's noise comes from transmission and brakes all the time. I went to the dealer twice and the technician tried to play the idiot game by saying i see nothing wrong. I contacted toyota and they told me that if…
