Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, ElectricToyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, Electric Review #10303902 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on Jan 31, 2010.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . when the car is moderately braking (so called regenerative braking) and either (or both) of the rear wheels hits rough pavement (pot holes, metal plates covering road, rough rail-road crossings) the car ceases to break and the car actually accelerates (the actual time is about 1 second of no breaks and acceleration). i have had this happen 10 times since i bought the car in oct of 09. in the first month the dealer told me they had not heard of this. two months ago (dec)a mechanic told me that the electric engine kicks in (when regenative breaking) which drives the front wheels for a smoother breaking, so he surmised that if the breaking wheels are not making contact the car would speed up. on 1/13/2010 i met with the head of service for the dealership. he told me that the dealership tested a prius hooking it up to a computer and reproduced the environment of this complaint. although he admitted there was a momentary lack of breaking with the loss of back wheel contact with the pavement he claimed there was no acceleration noted. he also admitted the test was done at approx. 25mph. i suggested he should repeat the test at 40-50mph as this is where it is most notable. toyota's only suggestion is to drive carefully. they know they have a problem but this is there solution. i have been careful but on 1/31/10 i was driving at 45mph beginning to decelerate as the light ahead had turned red, and the truck infront of me had to panic stop as a car cut infront of him, at that moment my rear left wheel hit a pothole so i was not able to brake and actually accelerated toward the back of this truck. when the brakes reengaged i actually stopped 12 inches from his bumper. the consequences of this are an obvious safety hazard when you need to stop unexpectedly, you might well be endangering other drivers and/or pedestrians. *tr.Mileage was 6123 miles.

(at least that what my salesman told me.) he said that the pads will last over 200,000 miles. hopefully i'll be able to drive it that long without an incident. but the problem now iis that parents may not want their kids to learn with my driving school, even though there have been no real problems with training teenagers yet. *tr.Mileage was 18500 miles.

[xxx] to whom it may concern: i purchased a prius 2010 in the summer of 2009. i called my dealer a week ago to report that i too had experienced the braking issue that was reported on the news. i was not sure if the car was skidding the first time i experienced it, i was going slowly and braked over a slippery patch and the car lurched before braking, but then it happened again over a rough surface. when i reported this to the service department of my dealer, conicelli toyota of springfield, pa, i was told that no recall had been announced, no other concern or care was given to me at that time. i did ask for the contact information of the company and was given an 800 number and the website. i tried calling the customer service line of toyota twice to report my experience, and was on hold for over 10 minutes before hanging up without being able to leave a message. i contacted my dealer again and spoke with the customer relations manager, i asked that they report my experience to you and that they work to advocate for a solution for the brake issue. i am awaiting a response from them. i again tried the 800 number without success and then accessed your website. i was unable to locate a place to send or post my comment/concern, so i wrote this letter. please add me to the 210 complaints reported for the prius braking problem. i am deeply concerned that toyota ¿fixed¿ the problem on the production line but was not proactive in finding a correction for the models produced before january 2010. i will be contacting my lawyer and other authorities about this issue. my safety and the safety of my family and those that share the road with me are of utmost importance to me. i am concerned that they are not of the utmost concern of toyota, who would leave us all at risk unless public pressure is brought to bear. .

Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Review #10312889 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on Jan 10, 2010.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . i have had several problems with my 2010 toyota prius. i have found the brakes to be undependable in situations of uneven pavement or anything but perfect road conditions. after applying the brakes, the car continues to move forward as if the brakes were never applied. this continues for several seconds causing a dangerous delay in performance of the brakes. this has occurred several times this winter, and is unfortunately not predictable. one instance led to my car slamming into an snow and ice bank damaging the lower front part of the car. any other car i have driven would have stopped long before having contact with the bank, as the pavement was dry yet uneven. another issue i have had is unreliable acceleration, again a hesitation of several seconds after the accelerator pedal is pushed that is dangerous as well making performance unpredictable. both these situations leaves me uncertain of what kind of performance i can expect form both the brakes and accelerator at any given time. since i drive my daughter to school each day, i am nervous every time i get into the car and concerned about the safety of my daughter and the other students. i also regularly wake up in the middle of the night fearful about driving my prius to school and work the following day. so far i have done nothing to correct the situation as toyota dealerships are so swamped by other recall appointments that it is nearly impossible to get an appointment for anything but a recall. so far toyota has not contacted me about the brake recall solutions or recall process, so i am at a loss about where to turn. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash.

Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, ElectricToyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, Electric Review #10323663 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on Apr 03, 2010.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . despite having had the brake recall item fixed on my 2010 toyota prius, i continue to experience instances when i depress the brake and the car skids from side to side with a sensation that the end of the car is literally lifting off the ground. this has happened to me multiple times and toyota has told me that the recall fixed any concerns, so there shouldn't be anything wrong. on one occasion when this happened my vehicle actually bumped into a fixed object, causing damage to the front bumper. i purchased this car based on toyota's reputation and am now so mistrusting of it that i hesitate to put my family in it. as a consumer i strongly feel that i and all owners of 2010 prius' should have the right to opt to return our vehicles to toyota and have the opportunity to select a different new or used vehicle of the same price for what we paid for our cars. the proven concerns about the 2010 prius should be enough for the nhtsa to put pressure on toyota to allow for some type of restitution. it is not as simple as just trading in the car at any random dealer because the reputation of these cars has severely lowered the market value. toyota's errors should not be permitted to have a financial impact on those consumers who purchased their cars. i would be happy to allow nhtsa to test my vehicle for a short period of time if it would help in the research of this problem. *tr.Mileage was 9000 miles.

(for example, i notice it every time i slow down at my street corner where there is a long-standing patch of rough pavement.) since 1994 i have owned 7 cars with abs (hondas, nissans, and toyota camrys), i have never experienced a similar sensation in any of these other cars. i have adapted my driving style to this anomaly, but i worry about my kids and friends who may occasionally drive my prius. it is unnerving to apply the brakes and have them feel like they are disengaging when you enter a rough patch of road. since this problem occurs consistently, i think it should be possible to test to see if this apparent braking anomaly is actually increasing stopping distances. (for example, test prius vs. model without apparent braking anomaly on smooth and rough roads to see if relative braking distances of prius are more heavily affected by rough roads that comparison model.) p.s. after purchasing my new prius, i noted that my dealer's service blog, had several reports of similar problems that were not corrected after servicing by the dealer. some posts noted that the dealer had applied a software fix that toyota distributed in early 2010. my car was manufactured after that fix. *tr.Mileage was 100 miles.

Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, ElectricToyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes, Electric Review #10409123 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on Sept 15, 2010.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . i purchased a 2010 prius. within a 100 miles, the brake pedal randomly locked up, the brakes grabbed and brought my car to an abrupt halt. the brake pedal remained locked for about 3-5 seconds. the car would not move forward or backward until after the brake pedal unlocked itself. initially this happened in reverse mode several times, then it was happening once a week and in forward mode as well as reverse. i took it in for repairs, most recently toyota had my car for a month. note that during this month long investigation nothing was done to my car, it just sat there. upon my leaving the dealership the brake pedal actually lock up! the field representative confirmed the pedal to be locked and would not release for 30 seconds or longer. he took measurements and the engineer took photos of the brake pedal as it was up in the air and not depressed as a normal pedal would be. he instructed the service manager to send me home in a loaner car and not the prius because of the brake pedal. i was so relieved that someone finally saw the brake pedal locked up and not release. after an additional week, the dealer contacted me and said that toyota determined that this condition is normal and that the vehicle is operating as designed! when i requested that the photos and measurements of the locked up brake pedal be included in my service report, the field representative refused to furnish that data. instead, he denied he witnessed the brake pedal lock up. there were no codes, no warning lights or warning sounds, a serious safety defect in addition to the brakes locking up. the dealer informed me that toyota is aware that 1% of the prius cars have this problem and are working on a fix! i believe that the design and/or manufacturing defect have resulted in an inherently dangerous product and toyota is trying to cover it up. please check into this, i believe many people are at risk. 1% of a million cars is a lot of drivers, passengers and others sharing the road. *tr.Mileage was 100 miles.

Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes Review #10512889 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on May 11, 2013.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . brakes failed while driving. pedal went to the floor. very little braking power left. luckily i didn't have to stop suddenly and was able to bring the car to a stop slowly. had the car towed to toyota dealer where they diagnosed the problem as the brake booster / master cylinder. they told me there was air in the brake system. i received a quote for almost $2900 to fix the brakes. i called toyota corporate office and asked for assistance with this catastrophic brake failure but was refused. searching online found others with same failure. in particular, there was a person with 43k miles with exact same issue, and toyota refused to help him. this is a very dangerous failure and should be a recall. please investigate fully and feel free to contact me for any assistance. i am in the process of replacing the brake booster but i will keep the old one in case you need it for your investigation. i had similar issue on my 2004 lexus rx330 and there was eventually a recall for it. it is unacceptable for a 3 year old car to have this kind of a safety failure. my wife and kids could have been seriously hurt or killed. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 96687 miles.

Toyota Prius 2010 Service Brakes Review #10548426 TOYOTA PRIUS 2010 car safety problem was reported on Sept 16, 2013.TOYOTA PRIUS 2010, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . coming to a stop light, i applied the brakes. this has been an ongoing issue with my car that when applying the brakes and a bump in the road is detected, the car supposedly switches to abs braking. the net effect of it is that the brakes temporarily disengage causing the car to accelerate for a brief period until you reapply the brakes and eventually come to a stop. so as a result, the from the moment you apply the brakes to the time you stop, there is a "lurching forward" of about 5 feet under which you have no control over the car. that is quite scary since if per chance a person were crossing the road while your car hit a bump in the road, your vehicle could theoretically hit the person before the brakes had a chance to kick in. i've checked the blogs and have noticed that people with priuses from various years have reported the same problem. i noticed this problem early on in my ownership of the car, and actually asked the dealer to fix the problem. they reported to me that everything was working properly. i then asked them to test drive it for a while to reproduce the problem. they had my car for a week and supposedly were unable to reproduce the problem. there was an abs recall by prius and they supposedly applied the fix to my car, but i have since noticed the same issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 35000 miles.
