My suggestion is that you seek out other Toyota owners who
have this problem. Find as many auto review sites and
complaint sites as you can to share this information.

You are not the first to report this ABS failure in a Toyota
less than 10 years old.

ABS failure was common in Chryslers in the mid-to-late
1990s. Honda has had this problem, too, in the Odyssey and
the Accord. So why are these non-wear-n-tear items failing?
Are these vehicles unsafe to drive at some point? You might
be told that your power assist is still working, but you
might also have a pedal to the floor and extremely long
stopping distances.

Go to RipOffReport.com and post to find others. Google car
survey or review sites to post on, too. My guess is that you
are far from alone.
