    Around 250-300 miles i went over a dip in the road at about 40 mph and went to hit the brakes while taking a turn that was approaching a stoplight when the brakes would not let me push them down and would give me feedback as if abs was active. After a couple seconds i was able to reapply pressure to the brakes to stop. This happened a total of eight times in 2,100 miles. The car has been in some close calls, and all…

    Our japanese built 2010 corolla has a dead spot at the top of the brake pedal travel. At all speeds, when first depressing the pedal, very little if any braking action occurs with the vehicle. Only after significant pressure has been applied to the pedal will the vehicle slow. This is actually more dangerous during low speed driving. The car has been to the dealer 3 times for this. There have been several…

    Engine will surge when at a stop and unless brake is fully depressed to the floor, vehicle may move forward. This surge is not consistent, occurring between 10-20% of the time and more likely to occur within the first 10 seconds of stopping at a light or to park vehicle after being on highways at higher rates of speed. *tr

    Anti-lock brakes go into a chatter, when wet, at low speeds, and do not stop the car very well. This has happened on more than one occasion. *tr
