Description of the problem | The dashboard abs and brake lights came on, speedometer dropped to zero, and the tachometer jumped while on the freeway. The first reaction when seeing the brake light on was to reach for the emergency brake release and on the vehicle the release is the step type. This release is the hood release and luckily the safety on the hood did not allow the hood to open. I've reported this to toyota when i got a recall for replacement of the dash if it cracked. They told me they hadn't heard this, and i told them to go to the internet as it was there and there were youtube videos showing this condition. |
