Typical brake symptoms owners report

Owners report the brake pedal being pressed fully but the car continuing to move and colliding with another vehicle or object.
Some describe intermittent brake failure combined with unexpected acceleration or the vehicle lurching forward at low speed.
Several complaints involve the car failing to stop even with hard braking, resulting in a crash into a wall, tree, or vehicle ahead.
One report describes a loose bolt securing the brake hose to the caliper, causing fluid leakage and loss of braking.

Toyota is recalling certain model year 2010 camrys. The length of the power steering pressure hose on vehicles equipped with the 4-cylinder (2ar-fe) engine may be insufficient, such that the gap between the crimp on the pressure hose and the brake tube for the left rear brake may be insufficient. Under these circumstances the brake tube may interfere with the crimp and may wear and then perforate.
Risk: A brake tube perforation may result in brake fluid leakage. A leak in brake fluid may impact braking performance increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Toyota will notify owners and, if necessary, dealers will replace or adjust the brake tube free of charge. The safety recall began on march 4, 2010. Owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
