“Three (3) separate systems failed. 1. Upon seeing cars ahead of us slowing down, my husband pressed the breaks to slow down to avoid collision. When he pressed on the breaks, instead of slowing down or stopping the vehicle, the brakes failed to engage, and caused a surge that compelled the vehicle to lurch forward. The lurch propelled our vehicle into collision with another vehicle. 2. Also, the forward collision warning system failed to alert or engage the breaks. Our vehicle was stopped by the impact of hitting the other vehicle, not by its own breaks. 3. The automatic breaking system also failed to engage at all prior to impact.”Owner report · Forward Collision Avoidance · Aug 2026
“Moving about 55 miles per hour on right lane of I-95 the Jeep in front of me braked abruptly. I braked hard but as my Sienna was quickly slowing down to stop, the brake pad felt spongy when it was slower and as I pressed even harder, it seemed to have stopped decelerating at that slower speed and that was when my Sienna slammed into the back of the Jeep. Happened today on July 15, 2026 at around 4:24 EST. I will also file this same report to Toyota. My wife and I are at the hospital getting checked, but my Sienna looked undrivable.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jul 2026

“While applying the brake at the stop light. (25 to30 mile speed limit zone) The Toyota hybrid sienna start to accelerate for split 5 or more seconds. I have to apply the brake harder even though I was already applying the brake to slow down because the light was red and the are several cars in front of me. For the first time I was scared thinking about rear ending some one in front of me or the Toyota Lexus incident where it accelerated and everyone died flashing through my mind. It was not a good feeling.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · May 2026
