Contacted TMC and was told a recall WAS performed on my car in 2010 for excessive acceleration. However, after further investigation, I learned there was not ONE but TWO different recalls for SIMILAR circumstances(acceleration) and was not informed whether BOTH were completed. I have had vehicle for approx. 5 years and have intermittently experienced the SAME problem. The last few weeks, it has happened more frequently and is becoming dangerous to drive! Also, I was told, since the ONE recall was completed, TMC declined to address the recent problem. Is there a possibility the FIRST recall was not COMPLETELY SUFFICIENT for both. I hope I can get an answer, as I have run out of options. I don't believe I should have to PAY for something that was supposedly FIXED even 10 years ago! I would, again appreciate any help. Thank you.
ABS and VSC lights on the dash have been flashing on and off for the last few years. They always went off after flashing. 2 weeks ago they both flashed on and the warning message "Check VSC System" came on with a loud buzzing whine. Now they will not go off. The brake pedal pulses back when applied and felt very hard. It took the car a long time to stop which is a safety danger. Took it to an independent mechanic and he diagnosed that the ABS system has failed. He also mentioned that Toyota issued several Customer Support Notices to repair or replace the unit but I did not get them even though I am the only owner and still resides at the same address. He gave me the notices and I went to a Toyota dealer but it refuse to provide any warranty work and wanted to charge me for another diagnosis, stating the notices had long expired.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON INCLUDING: BRAKE LIGHT, CHECK VCS SYSTEM, ABS, ALL OF THE EXCLAMATION LIGHTS, ETC.. IVE BEEN VERY DILIGENT ABOUT THE MAINTENACE ON Y VEHICLE AND HAD THE CODES READ AND RESET, BUT THEY KEEP COMING BACK ON. THE MAJOR ISSUES ARE THE ABS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER EROR CODE & THE ABS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO BREAK. IVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THE MECHANICS ARE SAYING THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. ALSO, THE MIRROR VISOR ON DRIVER SIDE STOPPED WORKING & CONSTANTLY FALLS DOWN BLOCKING MY VIEW. ITS VERY DANGEROUS! PLEASE ADVISE TOYOTA OF THESE ISSUES. IVE ALREADY HAD THE HYBRID BATTERY COMPLETELY REPLACED AND BREAKS & ROUTERS, BUT THE CODES SHOWING ARE: •P0420 and •P1423, •C1391, - Ask about a recall •B1241, •B2784, •B2281, •C2124 THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Error code C1391 Multiple warning lights like VSC, brakes, check engine, hybrid system failure. Vehicle has been repaired at Dublin Toyota dealership under recall several years ago and the vehicle has failed again with the same fault.
My ABS isn’t working properly prohibiting me to drive safely. The ABS module had a recall but it had yet to be repaired and replaced. I need help. Thank you!
I was driving on a residential street and my brake pedal got stiff and then got soft and I couldn't stop. I pushed the pedal hard and almost hit the car in front of me and then I felt a hard clack and it felt like I was hit or like I hit something. A loud high pitched beep continuously sounded until I turned off the car. All of my dashboard lights came on. And a continuous winding sound is coming from the abs pump.
The contact had a 2007 Toyota Camry loaner vehicle from the dealer. The contact stated that after the vehicle was stopped at a red light, the contact drove the vehicle at an undisclosed speed when the vehicle experienced unintended acceleration. The brakes seized and failed to stop the vehicle immediately while the brake pedal was depressed. The vehicle drove through an intersection and crashed into another vehicle coming from the opposite direction. The air bags were deployed. The vehicle then crashed into two parked vehicles at another dealer, Appleton Motorcars Sales & Service (1221 W Wisconsin Ave, Appleton, WI 54914), and came to a complete stop. Appleton Motorcars Sales & Service contacted the police, and a police report was filed. The fire department arrived on the scene and helped the contact exit the vehicle. The contact was unaware if a fire department report had been filed. The contact sustained contusions on her chest, right leg, and right hand, as well as severe headaches. The contact later received medical attention. The contact's passenger sustained chest pain and was transported by ambulance to the hospital. The vehicle was towed to an unknown location. The dealer was made aware of the failure and provided the contact with their insurance information. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

On the dashboard there is “check VSC system” and then the ABS and brake symbols. Took it at the Toyota dealer for a diagnostic and said brake actuator needed to be replaced.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING THE LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED.

The ABS brake actuator, part 44510-30270, initially failed in January of 2021 while traveling on the highway from Los Angeles to San Francisco. The VSC (vehicle stability control system) message appeared accompanied by multiple warning lights, followed by severely limited braking ability which endangered my family during high speed traffic on the 5 freeway. I purchased a used actuator on eBay immediately, it lasted not quite 2 years (it's 2023), it has now failed. I recently purchased a new used actuator pump again, and it has failed immediately. There is obviously a design flaw with this part, yet YOU (NHTSA) and Toyota refuse to address it properly. There is no reason why this device has not been recalled other than negligence. You need to reopen this case, and force Toyota to recall this part before someone is injured or worse!
