SERVICE BRAKES
My car experienced a failing brake actuator/accumulator. The first sign was the ABS and break lights accompanied by a whoosing sound.

Toyota had an extended warranty for this issue but that offer was closed by the time my car had the failure even though it was still unde…

Brake actuator had been making noises and it finally stopped working on 7/14/26. Thankfully my car was and stopped and parked. The car has 137k miles on it, one owner and no explanation of what caused this. There were no accidents, abuse, or failure to maintenance.

When the brake is applied, the vehicle accelerates for a fraction of a second before slowing down. I have experienced this when the vehicle is moving slowly, such as in a parking lot.
NHTSA ODI #11738043SERVICE BRAKES
On April 5, 2026, while driving downhill around a corner in my 2014 Toyota Prius, the brake booster and brake booster pump assembly failed without any prior warning. When I pressed the brake pedal the car did not slow down and instead appeared to accelerate due to a complete loss of braking assist. I was unable to stop the vehicle normally and had to rely on…
