I was driving my car on the right only lane and see the red light on the traffic signal. It is not a busy street. And there is a car in front of mine. I applied brakes and the brakes malfunctioned. The car did not stop and tried by pushing the brakes in full throttle. It did not work and my car bumped into the car in front of me. I towed my car and had my car inspected at dealership. The report was green and so no issues. And filed a case with Toyota to have the black box reviewed. Toyota reported no issues. At this time I am helpless and have a serious concern of running into the same issue putting my and others life at risk.

Popping noise from rear break frequently when I disengage the emergency brake lever. Whenever this happens the vehicle is stationary and not been used for 3 hours on; took to dealership stating could find problem, but dealer says it didn't find anything abnormal. Dealer's mechanic suggested releasing the emergency brake before releasing pressure from brake pedal as a recommendation. I told them this is not the order of steps recommended by manufacturer (Toyota) in the owner's manual. They contested my statement telling thta their mechanics are specialized technical personnel which they trust.
