| I have a 2006 toyota highlander hybrid 2wd. i tried to start the car one day and multiple warning lights came up on panel. i took a test drive around the block and noticed i did not have power brake assist, abs or vsc. the failure never went away. i took the vehicle to the dealership and they are replacing the brake actuator and skid control computer, two parts i wouldn't expect to fail. | |||
