Problems with 2010 Toyota 4Runner SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

I will preface this notation with a statement that i am very familiar with the functionality of a motor vehicle. as months went on after i first purchased the said vehicle i began to notice that i would have to depress the brake pedal more and more to engage the braking system. once deployed the brakes did bring the vehicle to a stop, albeit with a 'soft' pedal. i brought it to a local dealership and requested that they check the error codes as well as the brakes inc. lines, pads rotors etc.. they stated that everything was within factory specifications. they measured the distance the pedal traveled while the vehicle was idle. i commented that when i first start the vehicle the initial activation of the brake pedal engages the brakes fairly well. it is after a few stops that one has to depress the pedal further to have the same feel that was noted upon the initial stop after the car was first started. i said he felt like the brakes needed to be bled. they complied with my request. they were ...

2010 toyota 4runner. larger suv so i thought loss of control in the snow twice was due to weight increase to new vehicle. be more careful. but in the last two weeks i have had the front brakes lock up twice on dry pavement. this was not emergency braking but harder than normal. there was no pulsing of brakes as there should be for anti-lock systems. contacted dealer and will take the suv to the shop next week. *tr

Toyota rav4 2010 - on stop and go traffic i was going about 5 mph and i looked down for a second and rear ended another car. before i hit the car i slammed on my brakes and based on my many years of driving experience (12+) i believe the car should have stopped but it did not. the incident was very minor. my car has a few scratches that may go away with just soap and water. the other car did not have any damage. i did have neck pain all week and i still have it on and off. after the incident i tried, on safe conditions, to go up to 20 mph and brake suddenly and noticed that the car looses braking power as you do this. the brakes full power is felt mid press (as they are half way down) but as they are pressed all the way in they loose power. i had noticed a loud sound when i used my hand brake after putting the car in park. the car also moves about an inch or two after i put the car in park and depress the brake pedal. i called the ...

This complaint concerns the new 2010 toyota 4runner. there is an issue with the braking system and handling for this vehicle. upon depressing the brakes, the pedal travels a considerable distance sounds squeaky and notchy and delays in stopping. the anti-lock brakes do not interact quickly and often times engaged at the very end of the brake distance and creates a very uncomfortable and unsettling feeling. the height clearance is also a concern because when cross winds hit the vehicle it creates a very unsettling feeling and causes the vehicle to sway and get under the vehicle making prone to loss control. that wind does not have to be excessive; the mildest of winds will cause a disruption. several measures have been taken to have a local toyota dealership review and address the issue and they have come back and stated that it operates according to specifications. no one other than toyota knows of those specifications and they will not disclose them until enough people highlight this issue by complaining. to add further insult to injury, toyota has placed an administrative hold on any repairs unless they sanction it. in one ...
