Isn't there also a sensor on the 2007-2008 Yaris that isn't shielded properly (was fixed on 2009+ models), is easily corroded by salt and such, and can cause ABS/brake issues?

IDK . My 2007 doesn't have ABS, brakes are still original, and it hasn't really been exposed to road salt. The OP's location within the U.S. = ? Her Yaris may or may not have been exposed to a lot of salt.

Now how could I have missed that one. Yes, make that 4 things.

If you do live in an area of the States where road salts and brine are used in the winter, then you could be exposed to this issue with the rear ABS brake sensors. If you're in the sunny south, consider yourself exempt. Same goes for the control arm bolts.
