I purchased a 2010 Prius in March of this amidst all the negative publicity around Toyota cars. The Prius is my third Toyota and I have been a loyal Toyota driver for decades.
After having driven the Prius for over 8000 Km I have notice a potential issue regarding the brakes. When I have my brakes lightly applied in the process of slowing down and my Prius hits a bump in the road I notice that the car lurches forward or maybe the brakes loose grip for a split second. This has happened a number of times over past few months usually when travelling at slowly over a speed bump. Has anyone else noticed this phenomena and is this reason for concern? I have not been able to find any information on this issue on any Toyota forums nor have I approached the dealer about this.
Thanks
