Highlander 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 9,000 miles
Complete brake failure without warning on three separate episodes in the past two months. Brake master cylinder replaced by dealer. Brakes again serviced by dealer, but I am not aware of what was done. By luck only, the failures occurred in locations where traffic could swerve to avoid hitting us, or we had room to go off of the road and hit a snow bank or coast to a stop.
