For the last few months, our brakes seem to have been making ‘extra’ noises, but not palpably struggling to function. After driving roughly 45 minutes via high speed Interstate, parking, and then restarting the car, ALL the brake-related lights suddenly came on ((1)Brake, (2)ABS, (3)VSC, and (4)(!)). We took it slowly, off highway, w hazards on, and lots of space between other cars to the dealership. This felt scary because, although the brakes were making some strange noises, there was no way of knowing what the warning lights were specifically indicating, or if the brakes would go out. The Alexandra Toyota dealership confirms a code C1391, ‘abnormal leak in the Accumulator’ and requires ‘replace brake master cylinder kit and brake booster pump assembly’ This was addressed in a Toyota ‘customer support program’: [XXX] but our car is not covered despite having less than 80,000 miles on it. In Toyota’s own words this is an ‘internal malfunction’ and ought to be covered by a full recall. As it stands, owners’ vehicles would have had to show symptoms within a tiny 2.5 year window, and it’s evident online that many others have experienced failures outside of that window.
