The vehicle experienced an -??EPB Malfunction-?? resulting in the vehicle becoming unresponsive during use due to the electronic brakes failing to disengage or engage. There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure. The vehicle is currently under inspection by the manufacturer.

EPB Malfunction visit dealer lit up on dash. Dealer does not have this as a recall for my vehicle, but there is a recall for certain 2018 CHRs. If I have this issue, just like other CHR owners, my vehicle should be included in the recall as well.

The electronic parking brake isn't operating properly, causing the parking brake to not disengage after it-??s applied and as it stays engaged onto the brakes, its wearing out the brake pads and it eventually started to wear out causing loud screeching noise due to contact between rotors and brake pads metal. i swapped out the rotors and the brake pads twice already and its not stopping atall. i believe its something to do with emergency braking system where it sometimes does affect the functionality of the brakes and caliper and could cause a fatal incident if not addressed.

When driving there after using the cruise control there is a warning about the epb malfunction. It appears certain ch-R models have been recalled for this, but my VIN does not appear to be one recalled.

Epb malfunction light warning comes on while driving. Has come on a total of 15 times since purchasing in 9/19. Dealership has not been able to determine issue. Front camera has gone out 7 times while driving since purchase, dealer states it's from the heat. Front bumper molding is loose due to warped clips used by Toyota per the dealer

4 weeks after purchasing a 2018 Toyota C-hr I receive an alert while in motion on a city street to take the vehicle to my dealership for a ebp malfuction. Took it to the dealership and a week after that the alert came out again. Took it back to the dealership who states that they couldnt find the issue and to take a video when it happens again.

Front camera has gone out several times since purchasing August 2019. I've been told by the dealership it is "sensitive" to the heat. The ebs has failed twice since March 2020.. both issues happened while in motion. The front bumper molding continues to separate due to cheap clips holding it to the frame per the tech at Toyota avondale, AZ.

Takata recall there was a recall on the vehicle and we have called our dealership to ask to schedule a date where we can take in the car to have the problem fixed. We have called the dealership 3 times now and every single time, we were told that the repair would not yet be checked at. We have even contacted their headquarters once and were sent to voicemail. Toyota has done a terrible job at addressing this problem and we are extremely angered by their incompetent work and disregard of consumers (especially after the purchase of the vehicle). The place where we have called 3 times is 713-270-3951 and one of the people who answered the call would be lenette.

When hold function is active in vehicle if progressively slowing down when you are nearing a full halt the car makes weird screeching and clanking sound and brings car to a sudden abrupt stop. If you get to a full stop by decelerating pretty quickly this will not happen, but if you decelerate slowly it will happen every time.

The vehicle will not start. The following error messages appear simultaneously when trying to start the vehicle "brake override malfunction. Visit your dealer", drive-start control malfunction.visit your dealer", "engine oil pressure low", "engine coolant temperature high. Stop in a safe place. See owner's manual". the vehicle has less than 5100 miles. The vehicle was parked for more than 2 hours (after a 35 miles drive) in my driveway in southern California. Temperatures were in the high 40's/low 50's.
