    Does the car go into READY? How old is your 12V AUX battery?

    could be a speed sensor, bad tires, wheel bearing, brake actuator. get the trouble codes read by someone with hybrid aware scanner.
    you can try auto zone for a free scan, sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't.

    That would be really quick for a brake booster/accumulator/cylinder failure. No codes? Interesting.

    FWIW. You did not accidentally press the traction control button driver's left lower button panel; did you?
    Mice. Known issues.
    Good luck.

    I might have accidentally pressed the traction control button. How to I reverse that? I’ve tried to press it again but nothing happens

    This was a problem acknowledged by Toyota through the 2015 v. The 2017 is still a gen3 so you might try the dealer.

    Have you noticed the brake pump running more often. It makes the noise when you open the door in the morning.... you should rarely hear it.
    One symptom is that it runs often.
