Please refer to two earlier complaints, conformation # 10137322 & #10137322. There are two complaints filled with your office because one had the in correct brake system ( air brakes). This was corrected in the second filling to read hydraulic fluid brake system. These complaints where filed on 9/22/05 and to date i have received no conformation that you have them. What is the status of this filling please??? Thank…

Front brake rotors are severely warped after just moderate use. This causes the vehicle to vibrate violently when stopping. When slowing from high speeds, this leads to loss of control of vehicle. New calipers, brake pads, rotors, and probably bearigs will be required to repair.*ak

At just over two years ownership of my 2000 tundra (in oct 2002), i began to notice a vibration when i applied the brakes. Not recognizing the problem as a _x001c_warranty issue,_x001d_ i took my truck to a local repair shop. They indicated that the front discs were probably warped and that turning them would do the trick. After the front brake job, the problem remained. I then tried new tires and a wheel alignment…

Major brake pulsation, especially when slowing down at freeway speeds to exit. Dealer has replaced the front pads, front rotors, rear shoes, rear drums, rear star wheel automatic adjusters. This is the third time since the truck was new that the brakes have started pulsating so bad that i'm becoming afraid to drive the truck at freeway speeds. Toyota's tsb to fix the problems doesn't last any longer than 5,000…

Brakes vibrate and truck shakes bad, dealer says they will charge me to turn rotors and put in new pads. After going to your web site i see that there are alot of complaints on the same vehicle about the exact same problem. This is not safe and i would like an update on the fix for the problem please. How can these dealers charge people to fix a problem that is not there fault?*ak

My toyota tundra had warranty work performed on the front disc brakes and rear drum brakes @ 27,000 miles. Now at 40,000 the vibration problem has come back, same as before. My truck is now out of warranty and toyota claims i have to pay for my next visit to the dealer....and for what, the same parts as before! I have read on many web sites (www.tundrasolutions.com) about the brake vibration problems with this truck…

I have taken my vehicle in on (3) separate occasions for the problems with the brake system. They refuse to fix it. There have been (2) bulletins both sent to you and the dealerships regarding the brake systems. I have read on the internet about several people having the same problem. If this is not fixed it can be a safety related issue. I feel this is a defective system and toyota should have to replace it at no…

Front brake rotor warpage.maybe due to the rear brakes not helping to stop vehicle. Maybe the size of the brake pads are to small to effectively dissipate the heat.*ak

Moderate to heavy vibration when braking at freeway speeds. Low vibration when braking at lower speeds, 40 or less. Toyota has replaced the brakes twice and will do it again on monday 9/10/01. This is no gurantee that the problem will be fixed. Several other 2000 and 2001 tunrda suffer from the same defect. Toyota repeats that this is a anoyance and not a safety issue. All tunrda owners regard it as a safety issue,…

Brakes vibrate/pulse and steering wheel "shimmies violently when brakes are applied at speeds above 40 mph. Veh can be difficult to control. This is a common problem that toyota is aware of yet they replace defective parts with defective parts rather than coming up wioth a re-design and true fix. This is a safety issue and if nothing is done, lives will be lost as this veh is sold to more and more people.*ak

All work was necessary due to vibration during braking above 40 mph. Classic toyota in round rock, texas did the warranty work and told me there was a tsb calling for the replacement of the parking brake adjustment struts.…

This is not a failure but, is a great safety concern. Problem toyota is aware of and reoccurs. Severe brake vibrations on down grade with load at higher speeds. 55-60mph. Tundrasolution web site shows others have this same problem and not corrected properly. Something that goes past warranty. Factory problem.*ak

Manufacturer defect with rear brake drums and front rotors and pads. Vehicle began vibrating badly when applying brakes. Dealer replaced rear drum, front brakes and rotors at approx. 6000 miles. Now at approx. 25k miles, same problem has returned. With only 11k miles more warranty left, will toyota continue to replace these defective components past the warranty? I think not. Something needs to be done to force…
