This has been happening since about a month after I bought the car but the brakes have been making an odd noise. It does not matter how fast or slow I am going but it makes that noise and it makes the brakes slip and not come to a full stop fast enough. I have gone to Toyota 4-5 times just for this reason and all they can say is that everything is fine. It can't be fine if the car is slipping and not stopping when it should! mind you, I live in California and there is almost never rain so it is not due to wet roads.

A few months after purchase, while driving the car, all of the dash indicator lights came on and the display flashed "brake override malfunction, see dealer." The brake and the gas were not being used at the same time. Shortly thereafter, while stopped at a light with a foot firmly on the brake, the brakes disengaged and the car lurched forward about a foot before the brakes engaged again. The dash lights stayed illuminated the remainder of the trip. After taking it to the dealer, they reset the computer and returned the car. While driving it home from the dealer, the same problem reoccurred. The dealer then replaced the master cylinder and claimed the problem was fixed. A few months later, the same problem reoccurred. Once started, the problem occurs every time the vehicle is driven. After driving for a few moments, the dash lights illuminate, the error message pops up, and the car unexpectedly lurches whenever stopped. This happens whether driving in the city or on the highway (though obviously the lurching only happens when the brakes are engaged).
