Stopped at light with foot on brake. Pedal went to floor and car drifted into police car. Charge of following too close was laid and 4 months of hell broke loose. Complained twice in writing to Toyota president in Toronto. Customer rep had car inspected and engineering report issued several months later discounting any problems.
This failure was previously evidenced by service manager in the Toyota parking lot after the incident and his explanation was to the effect that it happens to all cars, even my Lexus, which I had never experienced. Later, after further review by Toyota's "escalated case consultant", Judi Faul, at Toyota, that manager refused to confirm what he saw and Judi went to the engineer report to discount our event. Did you know Toyota even had an escalated case consultant? When I spoke to them it was like I was talking to a computer with no expression of support and seeming to spout the "party line". We begged them to "dumb down" a solution so we could understand why and how to prevent this occurring again. We have learned to pump the brakes. Have owned vehicles since 1965 and have never experienced this problem or the kind of attitude received.
