NHTSA complaint: 2004 TOYOTA CAMRY — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER FOR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE BRAKES ON THE FOLLOWING DATES: 4/26/04, 6/11/04, 7/8/04, 7/31/04 AND 11/8/04. ON 4/26/04 THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED. ON 11/2/04 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT AT ABOUT 10 MPH SHE USED THE BRAKES TO STOP THE CAR AND THE BRAKES FAILED CAUSING A CRASH. THE DEALERSHIP INSPECTED THE CAR AND A MR. TROY HIGA, CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR, WROTE ME A LETTER STATING THAT TOYOTA COULD FIND NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. *NM
