All joking aside, I cannot deny the fact I laughed out loud.
That, and the fact he said what we all thought, but were too afraid to say.

All jokes aside, I do hope they are ok though. I have a little girl so I want her to be safe in a vehicle.
Btw his previous post goes back 12-19-10, so I guess he had no problems with it till now ?

One has to assume that way or leave that to interpretations. He hasn't logged in since he started this thread.

Some of you bringing age and gender is not civil, just my 2 cents .

Without implying anything towards the OP, I can say with 20 years experience and THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of motor vehicle accident investigations under my belt, gender and age play the biggest role in accidents. Women cause, are involved in, create more accidents than anyone else. Maybe this is only in my AO, but wow....

So I've had brake loss on my last GS430....the brake line was severed and pouring out brake fluid. Even then, I was able to apply mushy brakes before losing everything...this has to be electronics related..ie actuator
