Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)When I place my car in park and take my foot off the brake occasionally it will still drive. This has happened several times but this last time it did damage to my garage door.
I’m driving my car and all lights turn on dashcam and RPMs start going down really fast and unable to apply more gas/speed. This happened 3 times in the past year
The vehicle experienced an “EPB Malfunction” resulting in the vehicle becoming unresponsive during use due to the electronic brakes failing to disengage or engage. There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure. The vehicle is currently under inspection by the manufacturer.
EPB Malfunction visit dealer lit up on dash. Dealer does not have this as a recall for my vehicle, but there is a recall for certain 2018 CHRs. If I have this issue, just like other CHR owners, my vehicle should be included in the recall as well.
EPB brake warning is showing on my display. I see there is a recall for this exacy item for the 2018 CH-R vehicles but it says that my car isnt involved. Is it just a coincidence?
The electronic parking brake isn't operating properly, causing the parking brake to not disengage after it’s applied and as it stays engaged onto the brakes, its wearing out the brake pads and it eventually started to wear out causing loud screeching noise due to contact between rotors and brake pads metal. i swapped out the rotors and the brake pads twice already and its not stopping atall. i believe its something to do with emergency braking system where it sometimes does affect the functionality of the brakes and caliper and could cause a fatal incident if not addressed.

WHEN DRIVING THERE AFTER USING THE CRUISE CONTROL THERE IS A WARNING ABOUT THE EPB MALFUNCTION. IT APPEARS CERTAIN CH-R MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS, BUT MY VIN DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ONE RECALLED.
4 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING A 2018 TOYOTA C-HR I RECEIVE AN ALERT WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALERSHIP FOR A EBP MALFUCTION. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND A WEEK AFTER THAT THE ALERT CAME OUT AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO STATES THAT THEY COULDNT FIND THE ISSUE AND TO TAKE A VIDEO WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN.
WHEN HOLD FUNCTION IS ACTIVE IN VEHICLE IF PROGRESSIVELY SLOWING DOWN WHEN YOU ARE NEARING A FULL HALT THE CAR MAKES WEIRD SCREECHING AND CLANKING SOUND AND BRINGS CAR TO A SUDDEN ABRUPT STOP. IF YOU GET TO A FULL STOP BY DECELERATING PRETTY QUICKLY THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN, BUT IF YOU DECELERATE SLOWLY IT WILL HAPPEN EVERY TIME.
