2019 Toyota Tacoma Brakes Problems

Your brake master cylinder is leaking fluid inside your cabin, which is a serious safety problem that could cause brake failure. You've shown Toyota evidence that your truck has the same issue covered under their recall, but they refused to help because of your truck's assembly date—even though Toyota can't track which parts were used for which dates. The repair will require replacing the brake master cylinder, which costs around $1,600 to $2,000 out of pocket since your warranty expired.

Your brake pedal started dripping brake fluid inside the cabin, and you experienced a loss of power when braking. A Toyota dealership diagnosed the problem as a failed brake master cylinder. There were no warning lights or messages before the brake power loss occurred.

Your brake fluid is leaking inside the cab near the brake pedal area. The leak appears to be coming from the brake master cylinder and actuator, and you may notice drips of fluid on the vehicle floor. This is a brake system issue that should be inspected and repaired promptly, likely involving replacement or repair of the brake master cylinder and seals.

Brake fluid leaking into the cab floor of 2019 Toyota Tacoma. VIN not listed on NHTSA list. Toyota refuses to believe this is the same issue as recall, as per Yemi at 10:48AM on Sept 18, 2024 Toyota Corporate call 1-800-331-4331. Brake master cylinder diagnosed by independent, non-bias mechanic as: "Diagnosed brake fluid seeping through dust seal inside cabin running down shaft connecting the pedal to assembly, fluid is of consistency of the brake fluid required by system, fluid level is low at this time, if pedal is pumped 5 times and held down there is visible drip from the rod to pedal connection, needs master Cyl. assembly and exhibits same issues and description of fault as set forth in the recall notice. Customer advised to seek manufacturer assistance." Previous examination by local Toyota dealer was fluid leaking from steering column.

Break Master Cylinder leaking.

Approximately 100 feet from the vehicle, I rear end of the car in front of me. when I hit the brake pedal it didn’t seem like it stopped the vehicle I ran into another car and totaled the Toyota Tacoma. Conditions for dry and cloudy and road construction nearby.

Leaking of brake fluid from brake master cylinder into driver footwell.

Brake fluid leaking into driver-side floorboard. Due to leak in brake master cylinder seal. Recalls have been issued for same year and model, but my truck is not included. I assume mine has a different manufacturing date. Yet my truck has the same problem as those with the recall.

My car while driving every so often miles will have the abs light go on with the traction control light and the amb symbol going off. When plugged into device at auto zone code C1422 stating the master cylinder pressure sensor zero point high. I’ve tried replacing the break light switch which is a common repair for people with that problem I’ve checked all harness and wiring all is intact and undamaged/ no water damage. When I look up my vin number in kellybluebooks website a recall appears for a brake master cylinder recall for improper machining of the brake master master cylinder. Which will cause internal damage of one of the seals, affecting brake performance. It affected 44121 of vehicles of my year. But when looked up in this website and Toyota no recalls appear which is strange. The defect it has when the abs light and etc. lights go off is it will force the car to stop moving by locking the brake system and smoking out the calipers till brought to 0mph which is very dangerous when operating in the freeway as cars behind my aren’t expecting a sudden stop. The repair is to replace the whole master cylinder. Which Toyota would want me to pay but it should be a defect from a recall.

When driving the vehicle to work - the brakes failed and the emergency brake had to be used to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The vehicle had to be towed to a Toyota dealership where it was diagnosed that the master brake cylinder needs to be replaced.

I was at a stop light and when the light turn green I started driving forward and the ABS/ Brake lights on instrument cluster came on with repeated blinking. I slowed off the gas to apply the brakes. Brake pedal went to the floor with no brakes or slowing down at all. Luckily no one was in front of me and I had to pull the emergency brake. It was the only brakes I had at all. Once vehicle was towed to the nearest Toyota Dealer I had them diagnose the problem. Right rear wheel had leaked out fluid due to the rear brake cylinder failing. Upon repair of all brake pads, rotors, brake shoes, brake drums, both rear brake cylinders the problem was still an issue. Costly amounts of money already being spent to find out another failure with the Brake Master Cylinder/ Module. That part alone is also very expensive. Research has shown that the 2018 and 2019 Toyota Tacoma’s did have history of faulty brakes in turn possibly causing an accident. For my case on the road I was lucky. I can’t understand a loyal customer of years with Toyota that the company refuses any sort of aid and assistance in the matter. Why did the recalls end? Especially if this affected not just the 2018 model but the 2019 model like my Tacoma as well. For such low miles and no abuse this vehicle has faced other failures not only with the brakes alone. Vehicle is still with the Dealer at this time. Requesting some assistance in the matter please. Thank you!

Coming back home at 15:00 on 12 /22/22 it was light snow day on two lane county road my wife was following back for are mother in laws , West snoqualmie valley road carnation Washington , speed 30 miles per hours I was coming into a turn that cautions 35 miles or less and the. My dash comes up a yellow triangle with a exclamation and my brake pedal disappears out from under my feet and the brakes lock up and slide of the side of the road into the grass , put the truck into park then I try to put engage the brake pedal up towards me with my foot and the motor stalls /cuts out , I push the start button system comes back on and out into four wheel drive to get out of the grass/ cow field and the check engine stays yellow . I take it Toyota and they tell me everything is fine and it was just a traction issue with the program of the truck

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Tacoma. The contact stated while his wife was driving 30 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to immediately stop. The driver stated that the oil service warning light was illuminated. The driver pumped the brake pedal forcefully to the floor to stop the vehicle. The driver was able to continue driving to her destination. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V888000 (Services Brakes, Hydraulic) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 64,000.

Brake fluid leaking from master cylinder through the firewall back inside the cab and down the brake pedal.Appears it has a Defective seal in the master cylinder.Brake pedal seems harder than normal.

Brake pedal went to floor as I tried to stop truck from hitting a VW that rear ended a truck in front of them. I can still press brake pedal to floor taking just a few seconds to do so. I have forward this fact to my insurance adjuster, along with the dash camera footage of the accident.

IN A MATTER OF MINUTES, THE BRAKES WERE FINE AND THEN THEY WEREN'T. THERE WAS NO NOTICE GIVEN. PUSHED ON THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND DID NOT STOP OR SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN. PUMPED THE BRAKES AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY DECELERATE, BUT NOT BEFORE ALMOST CRASHING INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AN INDEPENDENT BRAKE SHOP HAS INDICATED THE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING INTERNALLY. THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL (18V-888) FOR PRODUCTION DATES OF 30 DAYS BEFORE THIS VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED. SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS VEHICLE EXHIBITS THE IDENTICAL BEHAVIOR IN THE RECALL THAT APPLIES TO "NOT" THIS ONE. AT LEAST AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING.

MULTIPLE OCCURANCES - 2019 TACOMA 42XXX MILES AND ON THE 3RD ISSUE OF WARPING FRONT ROTORS. VEHICLE IS HIGHWAY DRIVEN PRIMARILY AND ROTORS WARP AND CAUSE SHAKING WHILE BRAKING AT OR AROUND 3000 MILES AFTER HAVING THEM CUT OR REPLACED. SHAKING IS VIOLENT WHEN SLOWING FROM 65-70MPH AND LIGHTLY PRESENT DURRING CITY DRIVING. THIS ISSUE WAS ALSO A PROBLEM ON MY PREVIOUS 2019 TACOMA, MY 2018 TOYOTA CHR, AND MY 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A MODEL SPECIFIC ISSUE. ON PAST VEHICLE THE CONCERN WAS RESOLVED BY SWITCHING TO A NON OEM ROTOR. EVERY TOYOTA I HAVE DRIVEN THAT WAS 20110 OR NEWER ALSO HAS A HEAVY FRONT BIAS TO ITS BRAKE PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION WHICH IS MORE THANK LIKELY A KEY COMPONENT TO THE CAUSE OF THIS ONGOING CONCERN.

VEHICLE STOPS AS EXPECTED WITH NORMAL BRAKING ACTION. WHILE SITTING STOPPED WITH ENGINE RUNNING APPLYING PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL RESULTS IN BRAKE PEDAL GOING ALMOST TO THE FLOOR ~ SEEMS LIKE THE BRAKE PRESSURE IS "BLEEDING OFF" FROM THE SYSTEM. IN THIS SITUATION - BRAKE PEDAL ALMOST TO FLOOR - THE VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THIS WAS "NORMAL" ~ NEVER HAD THIS SITUATION IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED OR DRIVEN. IN ALL OTHER VEHICLES I HAVE DRIVEN WHEN THE BRAKE IS PRESSED, SOPPING THE VEHICLE, AND WITH CONSTANT PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE PEDAL DOES NOT SLOWLY GO DOWN TO ALMOST THE FLOOR.

MY 2019 TACOMA 4X4 DBL CAB SR5 HAS 22000 MILES ON IT AND HAS A HISTORY OF THE BRAKES PULSING. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKES AT 5K AND 11K MILES, AND NOW AGAIN AT 22K MILES. AT EACH SERVICE APPOINTMENT I COMPLAINED THAT THE BRAKES PULSE BADLY, AND THEY CONFIRM THAT THE ROTORS AND BACK DRUMS ARE WARPED. SO THEY REPLACE THE ROTORS & DRUMS, AND THE PROBLEM IS RELIEVED FOR A TIME, BUT THE PULSING COMES BACK WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. I KEEP TELLING THE SERVICE PEOPLE THAT THERE MUST BE A DIFFERENT PROBLEM CAUSING THE BRAKES TO WARP BUT THEY JUST SHRUG IT OFF.

WHEN APPLYING THE POWER BRAKES AT A STOP THE PEDAL AFTER A FEW SECONDS STARTS TO FADE TO THE FLOOR IF RELEASED AND REAPPLIED THEY COME BACK UP TO STOP POSITION AND WILL FADE AGAIN. WHEN BACKING UP AND BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND BACKING SLOWLY TO HOUSE GARAGE THE BRAKE STARTS TO FADE TO THE FLOOR AND HAS TO BE REAPPLIED TO STOP THE TRUCK. YESTERDAY IN A SHOPPING MALL I HAD TO GO AROUND A PARKED CAR WITH ANOTHER CAR HEADED IN MY DIRECTION HAD TO APPLY BRAKES AND SLOWLY MOVE PAST THE PARKED CAR THE PEDAL WENT SO FAR DOWN MY FOOT HIT THE ACCELERATOR AND HAD TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL AND REAPPLY THE BRAKES. HAD TRUCK BACK TO TOYOTA DEALER TWICE AND THEY INSIST THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK. IF YOU HAVE EVER DRIVEN AN OLDER CAR WHERE THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILS THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT IT FEELS LIKE, HAVING THAT EXPERIENCE ONCE IN MY DRIVING CAREER OF OVER 60 YEARS/ THE TRUCK TO ME IS NOT A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE AND AM CONCERNED FOR MYSELF AND MY WIFES SAFETY.CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE 1-800 NUMBER AND WAS TOLD NOTHING THEY CAN DO IF SERVICE DEPT SAID NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK, LOOKING FOR SOME SOLUTION I SEE OTHERS HAVE POSTED THE SAME PROBLEM ON YOUR WEB SITE. THANK YOU .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP IN A TIMELY MANNER. THE CONTACTED STATED THAT WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD VIBRATE AS WELL AS THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WOULD BE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORTHRIDGE TOYOTA (19550 NORDHOFF ST, NORTHRIDGE, CA 91324) WHERE THE BRAKE DRUMS WERE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AT LEAST FOUR TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

WHEN DRIVING MY 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA (APPROX. 6900 MILES) I NOTICED THE BRAKES WERE NOT FIRM AFTER INITIAL APPLICATION. THE PEDAL THEN WOULD SLOWLY SINK TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKING POWER WAS DRASTICALLY REDUCED THAT TIME. I PUMPED THE BRAKE AND ACHIEVED BETTER BRAKING RESULT BUT WHEN CONSTANT PRESSURE WAS APPLIED THE BRAKING RESULT DIMINISHED VERY QUICKLY. THIS CONTINUED DURING ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS. TO ME IT VERY CLOSELY RESEMBLED A MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER SEAL FAILURE, WHICH I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH VEHICLES IN THE PAST. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND OPERATED THE BRAKES IN A STATIONARY POSITION AND THE SAME SYMPTOMS OCCURRED. THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR WAS AT THE CORRECT LEVEL AND DID NOT VARY. I WAS ABLE TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE TECHNICIAN BELIEVED THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WAS FAULTY. THE DEALER HAS ORDERED THE REPLACEMENT PART AND PROVIDED A RENTAL VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE. I WAS INFORMED EVERYTHING WOULD BE A WARRANTY COVERED REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V012000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND BECAME SOFT, EXTENDING THE BRAKING DISTANCE. ADDITIONALLY, THE FUEL GAUGE PROVIDED INCONSISTENT FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO KEYES TOYOTA (5855 VAN NUYS BLVD, VAN NUYS, CA 91401) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL GAUGES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER HOWEVER, THE DEALER OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V888000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 900.

TWO DAYS AGO I FELT SLIGHTLY SOFTER BRAKE PEDAL ON NORMAL DRIVING. YESTERDAY, 6/25/20, I WAS TRAVELING IN A 60 MPH SPEED ZONE APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT. LIGHT TURNED YELLOW AND I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW AND STOP. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT VERY SOFT AND COULD BE PUSHED ALMOST TO FLOOR WITH VERY LITTLE BRAKING EFFECT. STOPPED ABOUT TWO FEET INTO THE INTERSECTION. CONTINUED TRIP WITH CAUTION AND SOFT AND ABNORMAL BRAKING CAPABILITY. CALLING TOYOTA TODAY. *TR

IN THE 3 OR SO MONTHS I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE, I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL INSTANCES OF INTERMITTENT BRAKING ISSUES. WHEN COMING TO AN UNEXPECTED OR URGENT STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS LIKE IT CANNOT BE DEPRESSED ANY FURTHER AND INCREASED PRESSURE TO THE PEDAL DOES NOT INCREASE STOPPING POWER. I AM AN ATHLETIC MALE WEIGHING 205 POUNDS (POINT OF REFERENCE FOR YOU ON HOW MUCH PRESSURE I AM ABLE TO APPLY). HAVING OWNED DOZENS OF CARS OVER 35 YEARS, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THE CLOSEST I CAN DESCRIBE THE ISSUE TO ANY OF MY EXPERIENCES WOULD BE THIS: IT FEELS VERY SIMILAR TO USING A BRAKE ON A VEHICLE THAT HAS POWER BRAKES WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING AND THERE IS A LOSS OF VACUUM TO THE SYSTEM. AT FIRST, THERE IS INITIAL VACUUM ASSIST, BUT AFTER A MOMENT, INCREDIBLE PRESSURE IS NEEDED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I VIEW THIS AS AN URGENT AND IMPORTANT ISSUE. SO MUCH SO, THAT I WANT TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS. SINCE THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, I DON'T KNOW IF THE DEALER CAN HELP. I WILL BRING IT TO THEM FOR A CHECK-UP AS A PRECAUTION THOUGH. I HAVE TRIED TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE IN ABANDONED PARKING LOTS, BUT HAVE YET BEEN UNABLE TO DO SO. THERE HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 3 INCIDENTS WHERE THIS HAS OCCURRED TO ME IN THE 4,000 MILES I HAVE DRIVEN THE TRUCK. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND FOLLOWED THE BREAK-IN PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THE MANUAL. IT HAD CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS TO AVOID HARD STOPS, WHICH I WAS CAREFUL TO DO.

WHILE IN MOTION LOST MORE & MORE BRAKING CAPABILITIES! NEARLY REAR ENDED ANOTHER AUTO! THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY COMPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD. I HAD TO USE THE E-BRAKE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. SPENT THE DAY GETTING THE TRUCK TOWED INTO A GARAGE!!

VIBRATION IN SEAT/CAB WHILE APPLYING BRAKES BETWEEN 35-15 MPH THAT WORSENS THE MORE YOU DRIVE IT. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW AND HAS 5000 MILES ON IT AND DEALER STATES NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF VEHICLE- NO PROBLEM FOUND.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BY WIFE. SHE WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AT 90 DEGREES, SHE WAS BRAKING, AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. SHE HIT A CONCRETE SUPPORT FOR A LIGHT POLE. THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WAS DAMAGED, AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, TWICE WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE "BRAKE!" FLASHED ON THE DASH INFO CENTER. BOTH TIMES I WAS COMING TO A STOP BEHIND VEHICLES COMING TO A STOP. WE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA COSTUMER CARE, WHO HAD AN INDEPENDENT SOURCE EVALUATE THE "BLACK BOX:. THE DATA WAS COLLECTED AND GIVEN TO TOYOTA, WHO INFORMED US THAT IT CAN TAKE 30 DAYS FOR AN OUTCOME. TOYOTA WILL NOT SAY IF THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE, IT IS UP TO US IF WE WANT TO DRIVE IT. TOYOTA WILL NOT PROVIDE US ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION, AS PER TOYOTA ASSISTANCE PERT OF THE VEHICLE WARRANTY. SO AT THIS TIME I CANNOT DRIVE MY NEW, 5000 MILES, TRUCK AND NOT PROVIDED ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION.

HI, I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH MY BRAKES FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. THIS IS A VERY NEW TRUCK WITH ABOUT 6200 MILES ON IT. WHEN I GO TO BAKE, IT FEELS VERY SPONGY. ABOUT HALF OF THE TIMES THAT I PRESS ON THE BRAKE, I FEEL LIKE MY BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALMOST 75% TO THE FLOOR. I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY, AS I FEEL THAT I WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP IN TIME IF I NEEDED TO.

TRUCK IS NEW. BRAKES DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. TWO TIMES THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE TRUCK. FLEW THREW THE INTERSECTION. THE BRAKES WILL FLUTTER AND FALL TO THE FLOOR. OTHER TIMES IT WILL BE VERY STIFF AND STOP THE CAR VERY AGGRESSIVELY. VERY DANGEROUS. BROUGHT TO TOYOTA IN LANCASTER CALIFORNIA AND THERE MECHANIC SAID IT HAD NO PROBLEMS. THIS INCIDENT HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED WITH WITNESSES. I WILL BRING BACK EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS.

BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKES LOCKED UP WHILE MOVING. DROVE A FEW MILES FROM HOME TO TOYOTA DEALER TO PICK UP VEHICLE TAGS. TRUCK IS NEW 1000 MILES. AFTER DRIVING TO DEALER PARKED TRUCK, GOT TAGS, STARTED TRUCK PUT IN REVERSE AND BRAKES LOCKED UP HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. GOOD THING IT HAPPENED AT THE DEALER. BOTH THE SERVICE MANAGER AND HER BOSS DROVE IT AND IT HAPPENED TO THEM. TRUCK IS NOW IN TO FI D OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. IT'S NOT A GOOD FEELING, DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE TRUCK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT WOULD BE STIFF AND OTHER TIMES IT WOULD TRAVEL TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE FAILURE OFTEN OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN IDLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LE BRUN TOYOTA (2435 ROCHESTER RD, CANANDAIGUA, NY 14424 (585) 312-2703) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FUNCTIONING AS DESIGNED. THE CONTACT AND THE MECHANIC GOT INTO ANOTHER 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA ON THE LOT AND DISCOVERED THAT VEHICLE'S BRAKES DID THE SAME AS HIS VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER TO THE CONTACT. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT WENT TO THE DEALER ANOTHER OCCASION AND TEST DROVE ANOTHER 2019 TACOMA WHICH PRESENTED THE SAME BRAKING EXPERIENCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,500.

I HAVE 3500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH THE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM ENGAGED THE VEHICLE SENSED AN OBSTRUCTION IN FRONT OF ME, WHEN THERE WAS NONE, AND ABRUPTLY SLOWED MY TACOMA DOWN FROM 65 MPH TO LESS THAN 30 MPH. BOTH OCCURRENCES WERE ON NJ HIGHWAYS. FORTUNATELY, THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME WAS FAR ENOUGH THAT I WASN'T REAR ENDED. I PULLED OVER AND DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL . I HAVE REPORTED BOTH INCIDENTS TO TOYOTA SERVICE IN GREEN ROOM NJ.
