TL * the contact owns a 1999 Toyota Land cruiser. The contact's wife was driving at approx 15 mph when the ABS light began to flash accompanied by a sudden high-pitched squeal. She depressed the brake pedal which went down to the floor but did not slow or stop the vehicle. She made a U-turn, coasted into a driveway, shifted into park and turned the vehicle off. The contact drove the vehicle to the dealership and the dealer told him that the brake booster assembly had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired at that time. He called the manufacturer and received a verbal commitment that the repair charges would be covered but it was later denied. There were no further problems with the braking system since that first failure. The current mileage was approximately 149,000. The failure mileage was approximately 132,000.
