| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Own a 2000 toyota tundra 4 door v-8 truck. bought new in february 2000. (1) brakes operated normally until about 60000 miles at around the end of 2002. (2) applying brakes lightly to slow down from normal freeway speed vibration/pulsation /shaking occurred. sometimes worse than at other times. at first, 1st reaction was to get off the brakes, but, in time, got used to vibration. not sure what long term effect or damage may occur from this vibration. (3) nothing has been done to vehicle to correct problem. contacted toyota, and they were aware of vibration issue. they apparently had a solution but my truck was out of warranty, and would not cover cost to install remedy. this appeared to be a latent problem not necessarily showing up within the original warranty period. no injuries or deaths occurred from this defect. *ak |
