 I took my car in a week before this incident because i needed service and was going on a trip to san diego with my 5 yr old daughter. keyes toyota in van nuys did everything to it and replaced my front brakes and inspected everything including the other brakes... so yesterday, im on the freeway and suddenly a piercing, long beep happens and 2 warning lights come on. brake and abs ... i'm thinking what just happened! i just had my car made perfect the other day!!?? .. and then, not two minutes after those warning lights came on, my brakes completely failed!! pedal to the floor nothing! :-( ... i was soooooo scared.... i put my hazards on and creeped over to find a shoulder .... i weaved over without causing an accident thank god so i get to the shoulder thankfully but it's a short shoulder... and im praying as i roll to a stop .. i've been back and forth with the dealership and toyota corporate these past 24 hours because i should not have to pay over $2000 for something that is the manufacturers fault!!... i could have died or killed someone...what if my daughter was in the car and i was at an intersection slowing for a red light!!?? oh my god!... something has to be done... i'm fully ready to sue toyota...go to the news outlets...los angeles times...anyone who will make this public... no one should die because they are trying to help the environment.... and no one should die because a corporation won't own up! ..i'm putting a stop order on the repair tomorrow morning....i'm hoping you can help me and others who could potentially be fatally injured (or their children) from an electrical system that just fails! both the dealership and corporate just said well, that particular part only has a 3 yr warranty or 36000 miles and so after that it's the owners responsibility.really? it's my responsibility if your crazy faulty car kills me or my child? nuts!

 Notified by dealer that both cv joints on front axles are severely worn and in danger of failure. the car has 56,488 miles on it. it has been well maintained, and most mileage was commuting at speeds under 45 miles/hour. this would seem to be a significant safety concern that should not occur at this mileage.
