Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This vehical and i think many other toyota vehicals falsly show a dash light to indicate a brake system problem when there is no problem. when i took it to the dealer they said the brake fluid was low but it was between the min/max levels indicated. i pressed the dealership and they admitted that the fluid level had to be at the max mark or the dash light would come on and they said that they have a bunch of people come to the dealership due to this false indication. in my opinion the vehical should not give a false indication of trouble with the braking system when the fluid level is correct. i think many people are wasting time going to the dealer due to this manufacturing defect. *ak
