NHTSA complaint: 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS — SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKES SEEM TO DISENGAGE FOR A SECOND AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE PRESSING ON THEM IN A NORMAL MANOR. I DRIVE EVERY DAY ABUT 20 MILES AND THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO WHEN I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BREAKS TO TRY AND AVOID AN ACCIDENT. DURING THAT INCIDENT THEY DISENGAGED FOR A SECOND AGAIN. THIS WAS A SECOND TOO LONG AND I WAS UNABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION. I LOOKED THIS UP AFTER MY ACCIDENT AND I SURPRISINGLY SAW SIMILAR REPORTS ON GOOGLE FOR MY CAR. BUT IT LOOKS LIKE TOYOTA IS SAYING THAT IT DOESN'T AFFECT MY VIN NUMBER? I'M HERE TO SAY THAT IT DOES.
