Dear sirs ´. recently my 1999 landcruiser with 87k miles brakes fail, without prior warning. while driving the Brake and ABS message light up and the brake pedal fail to engage , the truck was stopped using the emergency brake. As mentioned before no brake fluid leakeage or prior warnings. The brakes pads back tires where changed about two month ago. The mechanic diagnose a total crash of the system. He mentioned that the brake pump , the antilock system, hidroboosters pressure accumulator and the ABS relay needed to be replaced. All of this at the cost $3,515 just for the parts, no labor included. ' there are plenty of Landcruisers where I am located , so it is not an exotic car situation¨´. My question is How common is this type of problem, I also own a 1992 Landcruiser and never have problems with that system before, _.

Definitevely we need a second opinion , but can you please give me some info. about what to look and need to know so I am better oriented before this second opinion.


Sincerely Elvin
