A while back I was driving on a residential street my vsc message came on and I notice a jerk in the tires if it was sliding, so I immediately pulled over turned the vehicle off hoping it could be a sensor failure so after sitting for 5 mins I turned the car back on notice the message wasn't there anymore I then begin to drive the vehicle for a good 5 mins and the car did the exact thing vsc message came back on the car begun to feel like it was sliding so I pulled over again sat about 10mins this time, turned the car on the message wasn't there I start driving 5 mins later the same exact thing happened again.

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!

Few days ago while driving - the warning "check vsc system" indicator came on with four warning lights - brakes, exclamation traction control, ABS and skid control. Suddenly brakes started acting strangely and soft and jerky. Took the vehicle to fred anderson Toyota and after diagnostic test was told that it is code 1392 which requires replacement of ABS control module (the cost to replace was quoted as $2875.37 - we declined to get it fixed. Called Toyota customer service - they reviewed my complaint but declined to help.

I got in my vehicle today in the vsc light came on. I have researched over google, and everything points to a $3,000 repair, or a recall repairable by Toyota. I would like to see if I am eligible for that recall repair.

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

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 Camry. 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.

The check vsc system error came on recently. It also came on a few years ago and then went away after a few days. It's now been up for weeks. The error that is triggering is C1391, and the repair shop says this is due to an abnormal leak in the accumulator. All of the brake-related lights are on constantly a few seconds after starting up the car and stay on until shutting it off. Sometimes the brakes randomly shut stop functioning as expected and do nothing when compressing. I didn't realize this was a recall when the car was still under warranty (and even after Toyota extended the warranty due to the fact this is such a wide and pervasive issue); otherwise, I would have taken it in to get it repaired as a precautionary measure. This repair was quoted to cost a minimum of $2,200. It would be ideal if Toyota would fix this part since it is a known issue and since no other major part of the car is faulty, even though the car has almost 200,000 miles on it. I feel Toyota has put lives at risk by not actively pursuing to contact owners of this model vehicle since the part they put on these cars is so faulty.

When I drive this car I press the brakes and they do not engage or they engage on a delay.. while driving I attempted brake to slow entry into uphill driveway. All lights on driver panel lit up. Brakes did not respond to slow down or stop. With full force I depressed brake pedal. This is happening from last couple of months.
