As I was driving a loud noise came on inside the car my ABS light and brake light came on and then my brakes failed almost causing a huge wreck and from what I have read it is the ABS accutator or brake accutator which I guess is the same thing but apparently a lot of the toyota camry hybrids are having this issue where the breaks are failing and causing accidents but yet there are no recalls for it and apparently the part cost 2,900 from toyota which is insane when it should be a recall because it's a major safety issue

Check vsc system as well as ABS and tire lights come on. Known issue with toyota. Had a maintenance program, but won't help me because it didn't start to occur until 1 month after expiration date. They don't send notifications. You have to wait until the problem occurs which could be after it causes an accident!

I was driving my vechicle yesterday that was just in the shop since saturday saying that they replaced everything that was wrong because previously my breaks locked up on I-95 and I couldn't stop. I got the vechicle back yesterday and I was driving home from work and my breaks failed again causing me to rear end the person in front of me. I could not stop. Absolutely no breaks!! The vechicle was in motion trying to come to a complete stop. I believe the ABS break aculator / module in the vechicle is bad. The company whom I bought it from I believe should take responsibility for this accident considering they're the ones who stated they fixed the vechicle

I had taken my car to a dealership to get my brakes and rotors changed ,around september of 2018, about a week later the traction light would come on whenever I stepped on the brakes . I took the car back to the place where I had gotten the brakes done and they said there was nothing wrong. I finally took my car to another mechanic, so they could diagnose the car , when I got back my car, the vsc, traction ,and brake lights were on. They claimed it was the ABS module.

The brakes on my 07 toyota camry went "soft" and the brake light came on when driving at about 35 MPH. I pulled into a parking lot, waited, and the prob. Went away. A few days later, the brake light, traction control and ABS lights turned on, and check vsc system displayed when at a red light on a residential area (25mph). I took the to toyota for the second time, and they said it was an ABS issue, actuator and 4 brake fluids. The cost to repair it is $1926.54. The dealer advised me to call toyota, which I did, bc there had been problems with braking in 07 and 08 toyota camrys. Toyota was incredibly unhelpful (this despite my owning two toyota camry hybrids), even though toyota had issued two extended warranties because of the issues with intermittent loss of assisted braking reported by many customers, the last one through july of 2017. The woman I spoke to insisted that since the car experienced the problem "out of warranty" there is nothing toyota was willing to do.

My wife and I bought a certified camry hybrid from the local toyota dealership. Even though there is a buzzing noise from the original purchase, we assume that because it was a hybrid that that was normal. For 4 years we have brought our camry to the same dealership for oil changes and regular service needs. Never in the time had the dealership told us there was a problem with the buzzing sound. Recently the ABS and vsc lights came on so we took the car in to see what the problem was, after the dealership told us but the cost would be around $2,100 I decided to see if I would be able to do it myself and after googling the part I looked under the hood and saw that the noise we have been hearing for 4 years is coming from the same part that needs to be replaced.
