I've had TWO FAIL in 11 years! (I imagine they replaced the fluid with the first). IMHO, #Lexus is overpriced crap.

I need to be able to vote twice, because I've had two. Voted in relation to my '08.

The 2008, I was still arguing about replacement of it when it was totaled (it started acting strangely...brake pedal noise when stopped, being ultra-touchy at the top of its range of movement...at about 110K). Car junked at 124K.

The 2012 which replaced it, only 89K, but the brakes both feel better than my old one and no noise.

Don't know what was done to each. I was getting ready to change the fluid on the 2008 when it was killed.
