2007 Toyota Avalon Brakes Problems

“While driving toward a stop sign, attempted to apply the brakes. The brake pedal went very low to the floor, car slowed down, but did not stop. Loud abnormal grinding sounds could be heard and locking of all brakes were felt. I moved the gear from drive to neutral to park, because the car would not stop by use of brakes. If I were on a major road, I would have crashed into someone, or been rear ended.”

“I was driving my 2007 Toyota Avalon on 3/23/13 when the check engine light, traction control light, and stability control light all came on. I immediately went to a local napa store and discussed the error/s (found on my vehicle dash) with one of the sales assistants.. The sales assistant then went out to my car and interfaced his black box with my automobile computer and an error code p 2197 showed up. As it turns out this error code is a faulty oxygen sensor in bank two of my right exhaust manifold. …”

“I was approximately 2 1/2 cars length apart from the car in front of me. When I saw the traffic light begin to change from yellow to red, I quickly put on my brakes, but the car did not slow down or stop; it accelerated instead. I kept my foot all the way on the brake pedal, but the car still did not slow down or stop. I brace myself for the impact because I knew that it was unavoidable to hit the car in front of me. It finally stopped when it struck the car in front of me.”
