| 1993 toyota previa. sudden brake failure at about 30 mph. i tried to stop and there was no braking. parking brake was also not operable. i turned the key off and the vehicle continued to run. putting it in park or reverse did not stop or slow it down. i went down gulley, across lawns and parking lots and did circles in parking lot until it finally stopped (?ran out of gas). terrifying!! i notified toyota to see if they were interested in finding out why there was this dangerous failure and i was informed my car was out of warantee and they really didn't care. overall it had been a great vehicle and all six of my children used it to learn to drive. i was about to give it to my youngest son. thank goodness it happened with me and not him. i was very disappointed that toyota really didn't care that this could have resulted in serious injuries and there are still alot of previas on the road. it had fairly new brakes and had been well maintained. it will now be sold for scrap. | |||
