October 2010 I purchased a toyota sienna 2011. 3 months later I drove back from work and I have my 4 children with me in the car where the car brakes failed to respond as well the emergency brake!!!! Was the worst day in my life!!!! I crashed into a truck and we were all in shocked to this day!!!!...after the crash I had received a recall in the toyota sienna 2011 for the brakes?
I bought a brand new 2011 toyota sienna XLE in may of 2011 from jay wolfe toyota in kansas city mo. After 1000 miles within less than a month, started having brake problems. When I press the brake, it was gliding, taking the paddle to the floor in order to stop the vehicle even at slow speeds. I was enroute to omaha for the weekend with my family and kids when I started having the brake problem. I took the vehicle back to the dealership and they took 4 days to check and determine it was air in the brake system.
