This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Master cylinder failed. Brakes applied themselves and stuck while on the highway. The front tires became so hot the lugnuts sheared off and the hub caps melted. The dealer replaced the component at my expense. I am starting to experience brake pedal fading. While stopped the brake pedal will go to the floor with the new master cylinder on the vehicle. I hope this vehicle does not kill me or others before Toyota does something about it.
When applying the brakes front wheels locked up, causing the tire to get so hot that the lugs: Nuts sheared off, and the hub caps melted. Dealer can't duplicate the problem, possibly the master cylinder.
