description: I HAVE HAD OVER 20 BRAKING INCIDENTS WITH MY 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY. ALL BETWEEN THE SPEEDS OF 10 TO 40 MPH. EVERYTIME I GO TO APPLY THE BRAKE, THE CAR WILL ACCELERATE, AND FEELS LIKE THE BRAKES AREN'T CATCHING OR SOMETHING. ESPECIALLY WHEN ON A POORLY PAVED ROAD. I HAVE NOW BEEN INVOLVED IN 2 SEPARATE REAR-END COLLISIONS WHERE I COULD NOT STOP AND ENDED RAMMING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. A THIRD TIME I WAS ABLE TO SWERVE, AND CLIPPED A METAL SIGN. I BOUGHT THE CAR AS A TOYOTA CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED WITH 29 K MILES ON IT, IN OCTOBER 2006. I BEGAN ENCOUNTERING THIS BRAKING PROBLEM AFTER ONLY HAVING THE CAR A WEEK. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. SO I BOUGHT ALL NEW BRAKE PADS EVEN THOUGH THE OTHERS WERE PRACTICALLY NEW. DIDN'T HELP. HAD THE BRAKE LINES BLED AGAIN, AND THE ROTORS RESURFACED. DIDN'T HELP. I FEEL THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THESE VEHICLES, AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT. THIS BRAKING PROBLEM HAS ALREADY COST ME OVER 2,000 IN REPAIRS AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. YET STILL I MAKE MY $450 A MONTH PAYMENT, WITH NO WORD FROM TOYOTA ON WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
