I have the make and model and this happened to me a bout a year ago, I noticed some broken pieces of plastic on the floor. The brake lights would stay on and run out the battery. What it was? A little plastic like peg that buffers the button underneath the brake. It cost $1 from the Toyota dealer and just pops back in place. Under the thin metal part the brake is actually attached to, there is a button. The thin metal part pushes this button when your foot is NOT on the brake so if the little plastic piece is broke, there is a space between the metal and the button does not get pressed all the way. I'm trying to explain it the best I can, being a layman and not a mechanic. All I know, a lot of place will take your whole system apart and not catch it and you could be out a whole lot of money for nothing. Go to Toyota with this description and I'm sure they let you know what it is. You should pay more than $1 unless it went up but I doubt that it's pass $10. Hope this helps someone.
