I HAVE A 2009 TOYOTA SCION TC WHICH I AM VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE BUT IT IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT I AM HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES(ABS TRACKING SYSTEM). I HAVE HAD 3 VERY CLOSE CALLS AS A RESULT OF MY BRAKES LOCKING UP(GOING SLOW) AND UNABLE TO STOP, EVEN AFTER I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE THEY REMAIN LOCKED. ONE INCIDENT I ALMOST WENT RIGHT INTO A BUSY 4 LANE HIGHWAY. IT HAS HAPPENED ON DRY ROADS AND WET ROADS ARE A LOT WORSE, I HAVE TO START STOPPING A LOT SOONER THAN ONE SHOULD. I AM VERY STRESSED WHEN HAVING TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE ANYMORE. ANOTHER ISSUE WHICH ONLY HAPPENED ONCE AND WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING SLOW IT FELT LIKE MY VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT APPLYING ANY ACCELERATION. I HAVE A STICK AND I FIND MYSELF UNSURE WHICH GEAR TO BE IN WHEN THE ROADS ARE WET BECAUSE AT TIMES I FEEL LIKE I AM DRIVING ON GLASS AND HAVE TO SHIFT TO HIGHER GEAR AS IF THERE IS TOO MUCH POWER CAUSING ME TO FEEL LIKE I DO NOT HAVE FULL CONTROL OF MY CAR AND THAT I AM ACTUALLY DRIVING ON GLASS AND THE ROADS MAY ONLY BE WET. *TR
