View 1 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Brakes Failed Momentarily And VSC Light Will Flash - Speed Is Below 7mph
I have a 2008 T Spirit 3 with 100k on the clock which runs perfectly fine apart from one niggly issue.
Sometimes when I brake and the speed is below 7mph it feels like the brakes have failed momentarily and the vsc light will flash and then the brakes will clamp on again.
It happens at least 20% of the time when I brake. Why this is?
Prius (Gen 3) :: Brakes Making Squeaking Noise When It Comes To A Stop
I have just purchase a used one 2 weeks ago. I bought it from a local dealer (Longo Toyota). After I got the car home for a day it started to make noises when i brake. If the brake pedal is depress about half way it will make a squeaking noise when it comes to a stop. So i bought the car back in to the dealer and all they did was flush the system and reboted the computer. They said this is normal for some pruis to make a noise when the vehicle comes to a stop and it should not be a safety concern.

View 19 RepliesLexus GX 2004-09 :: Brakes Squeaking Noise Under Dash Area
Ok this just started and it has to do with brakes in a way----the Noise is the sound of when you are deflating a balloon (the squeaking sound). Its under the dash area and I can make it do it if I press on the brake pedal and let off it will make the squealing sound. Some times it will do it on its own just driving along without even hitting the breaks, but when it DOES start doing it I can make it do the noise constantly pushing the brake pedal down and then letting off!!!

My moms GX 470 squeaks a lot at lower speeds and when pressing on the brakes. She's taken it to the repair shop twice, they said they tried replacing the brakes and they were still squeaking. It has to be something around the wheels cause thats where the sound is coming from.
View 10 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - Brakes Squeaking / High Pitch Sound?
My 2004 V8 Toureg has around 7K miles on it. The brakes are squeaking at a very high pitch. The same squeaky sound a bus makes when it stops. My dealership told me it is due to me not hitting my brakes hard enough. I have hit my brakes hard many times as of late and the squeaking continues loudly as folks will turn their heads. The dealership told me it is due to brake dust accumulation which if I wash the car they still squeak. Dealership also told me the VW regional field rep has told them that to rough up the brake pads which is a temporary fix. Dealership also stated if the brakes were replaced the brakes would start squeaking in a matter of a few months because this is how German cars behave. Not sure where to take this matter.
My other problems as of late are a bad power steering pump(replaced), bad suspension controller arms(new parts are ordered-kept hearing a popping sound when turning the tires and braking and grinding noise from the suspension), a bad keyless access module(replaced), steering column not centered(re-centered), wind noise from the rack ontop (basically to fix and probably only temporarily, unlocked them and then moved them forward a bit and then back to their original location- may have been loose as no more wind reverberation inside the car now), and rubbing from my driver side wiper. The brakes are the real thorn in my side at the moment due to other drivers hearing the noise while driving as they turn their heads. Very embarrassing especially coming from a new car!!

My '04 Prius is currently at 134k miles and I've noticed for a while that the front suspension feels and sounds "loose" over small bumps and imperfections on the road.
I also just started noticing some squeaking noise coming from the axle/hub when I first drive off in the morning.
I first thought the loose feeling could be worn out shocks, but I'm starting to worry that it would be something else.

It's a 07 prius with 65k miles. I realized that it is making this squeaking noise while going over bumps "ONLY" when the brakes are applied.

I posted a youtube video w/ iphone video if you feel like hearing the noise...

So my front brakes are squeaking pretty damn bad, and I'm pretty sure that I need to replace them. However, with the history that we have with the rears wearing faster than the fronts, and since neither have been replaced in 30K miles.
I don't want to have to come back and go at it again, and would rather spend one day then two getting the job done. .
