Car intermittently has brake malfunction, the traction control and ABS light are displayed and break power is significantly diminished. Once you turn off the car and start it again everything goes back to normal. This has happened twice now in the last 2500miles, I purchased the car with 29,000 and now it has 36,000 on it now. The breaks failed both times while accelerating straight from a stop light on a feeder road. I immediately pulled over and turned off the car and then back on. The lights go away and the breaks work correctly. Many other owners have mentioned this issue, but Lexus is not issuing any safety recalls.

Car would not stop when brakes were applied. The last time it happened, my wife was parking on the second deck of a parking lot and only a barrier stopped her from going over the edge. A similar problem happened twice before. We are not certain if the vehicle surged a bit when applying the brakes or if it just didn't stop. Either way, the brakes didn't work as intended when driving at a low speed. One of the other times my wife ended up in the middle of an intersection but fortunately no one else was in the intersection at the time and the other time it happened to me and I was able to stop before facing any serious risk.
