I have taken vehicle to Toyota service center numerous times and showed them what the vehicle is doing and they are telling me it’s normal. Its not normal when every bump, manhole, railroad tracks you hit in the road with your foot on the brake when your trying to slow down when the abs or traction control is activated and the car skids forward and comes close to causing a crash. When that is activated sounds like a electric grinding noise is activated. I only have videos no pictures
While on eastbound I-80, my tire pressure sensor light came on. Approximately 5-8 minutes later, my right REAR tire came off my car. I was in the slow lane; however, when I went to slow down even more, my brakes failed. I had no brakes on I-80 with only 3 tires. I placed my car in neutral and coasted 1/2 in the slow lane & 1/2 in the bike lane until my car would stop.
When breaking on dry roads no matter my speed, or how hard I press the breaks, the ABS system kicks in momentarily making my vehicle feel like it’s accelerating vs. stopping. This is very intermittent. Tends to happen more on rough city roads, however it really doesn’t matter. I understand ABS is really suppose to work for wet or snow roads in slippery conditions. In my experience ABS has always worked with a rapid pulse. This is certainly not happening. The breaks literally feel like one big skip.
The breaks are failing to stop the car if there is any rough spots in the road it feels like I'm pushing against air, the car jerks, the break pedal will shudder. The car has no warning lights or sounds when this occurs. The car has recently been inspected by the dealership for this issue, they performed a resurfacing to the breaks. The issue has continued and 2 days after repair, car slipped into intersection due to a failure of the breaks and after going over a rough spot in the road.
My Rav4 Hybrid 2022 exhibits a front brake squeal/squeak noise when braking at low speeds. Went to Toyota delearship and they examined but said there's no issue! Called toyota customer service and expected a call back but didn't hear back.(Toyota Case Number 220726001124)
