Ok, so I took the car in Thursday because I was getting a message on the dash about brake malfunction. Got the call Friday that it was ready. Picked it up and all seemed fine. This is what the receipt had on it. "tech inspected and found code 1247. performed initialization of the linear solenoid valvce (thats the way it was written, I know its valve) and calibratrion. reset code test drove 8 mile. veh ok at this time".

I drove the car for maybe a total of 20 miles since and now it locks the brakes at the slightest touch of the brake pedal. Im talking about just barely pressing the brake and the car feels like I just slammed the brake. I'll be setting up another appointment and taking it back in tomorrow. But does anyone have any idea of what can be wrong now?

Same thing happened to me. One of my calipers became "frozen" because of bleeder valve rust of all things. Car was unsafe to drive. Lexus picked it up, fixed it under warranty, bled lines and took care of it. But when i barely touched the brakes, the car would lean hard to left side and front left wheel just locked up..thank God I was on a slow moving street and close to the house.
