2005 Toyota Landcruiser problems

“HYDRAULIC BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY failed. Lost all braking ability while driving. Had to use emergency brake for stopping. Dealer found the following codes: C1223, C1251, C1252 AND C1256. ABS CONTROL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION, PUMP MOTOR IS LOCKED/OPEN CIRCUIT IN PUMP MOTOR GROUND. Hydraulic brake booster assembly was replaced with a new OEM unit and brakes now work as they should.”

“EXCESSIVE FRAME RUST. I HAVE A STEERING STABILIZER BAR FRAME MOUNT THAT HAS RUSTED COMPLETELY OFF AND THEREFORE THE STEERING STABILIZER IS NOT PERFORMING PROPERLY. HAPPENED DURING DRIVING. THIS IS THE SAME YEAR (TIME FRAME) AS THE NUMEROUS OTHER TOYOTA FRAME LAWSUIT ISSUES.”

“TOYOTA SENT US A RECALL NOTICE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. THERE IS A POTENTIAL DEFECT IN CURTAIN SIDE AIRBAG. WE EXPECTED THE REMEDY TO BE AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER 2016. IT IS NOW MID-OCTOBER 2016. THERE IS NO UPDATE IN TERMS OF TIMING AVAILABLE. IS MY CAR SAFE TO DRIVE? NEXT STEPS?”

“I WAS DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT A SPEED 60-70MPH. IT FELT LIKE FRONT DRIVER SIDE BRAKE WAS ENGAGED BY ITSELF WITHOUT PRESSING ON THE BRAKES. I LOST THE CONTROL OF THE CAR, AND THE CAR STARTED SKIDDING TOWARDS TO LEFT. I HEARD HIGH PITCH NOISE. I AND MY PASSENGER FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS GOING TO ROLL OVER. THE WEATHER WAS SUNNY, NO RAIN, NO SNOW. THE ROAD WAS CLEAN OF DEBRIS OR FLUIDS. THIS FAILURE OCCURRED ONCE. I LOST THE CONTROL OF THE CAR, FELT LIKE ROLLING OVER. IF IT WAS RAINY DAY, PROBABLY, I WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD OR SERIOUSLY INJURED. I BARELY GAINED THE CONTROL OF THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER, THEY HAD INSPECTED AND REPAIRED. THIS WAS THE TECHNICIAN'S WRITTEN COMMENT: "PLEASE NOTE THE VEHICLE HAS AFTERMARKET BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS. THIS DAMAGE IS MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS NOT BEING PROPERLY TORQUED DURING PREVIOUS BRAKE SERVICE." I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT, BECAUSE, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THIS PROBLEM WAS ENCOUNTERED BY SOMEBODY ELSE AS WELL. *TR”

“CURRENTLY LEASING 2005 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER. THIS IS THE SECOND ONE SINCE ORIGINAL PURCHASE. AFTER 1500 OR SO MILES THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. I HAVE HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE CHECKING FOR TIRE BALANCE, AND I HAVE ALSO PAID FOR ALIGNMENT ETC. AFTER COMPLAINING TO TOYOTA CORPORATE THEY AUTHORIZED 4 NEW TIRES AND LOCAL DEALERSHIP CHECKED THE CAR. THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING TOO SIGNIFICANT BUT AGREED TO TRY THE NEW TIRES. IM WONDERING IS THIS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. SINCE THE NEW TIRES THE SHAKING IS WORSE. THE INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING, AWAITING TOYOTA TO APPROVE THE NEXT STEP. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH OTHER 2005 LAND CRUISERS. *NM”
