Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a horrible vibration problem when braking. this is caused by toyota releasing brake calipers that are too small. i have had my brake pads replaced several times, my rotors replaced, and there the problem will go away for about a week or two. then the problem comes right back. technicians have suggested that i replace the calipers for larger calipers. this issue is caused by toyota's design flaw, not my use of the truck. toyota should recal the brake calipers for 2000 tundras. they obviously know there is a problem as they have released several tsbs regarding this and they fixed the problem on the 2001 model. it's rediculous that you have to wait for someone to get injured before toyota will act on this. other complaint numbers logged regarding this are...566414 722135* 725801* 733474 739412 741099 742504 747783 747799 747802 747812 747815 747856 747859 747957 748143 748274 749042 749623 750085 751434 751551 751920 752164 752286 752739 752954 753085 753123 753140 753149 753155 753161 758565 761583 761833 763426 764214 764502 764958 767217 767230 767230 767332 767551 767755 767802 768683 785848 876163 877876 878199 879056 889900 890452 891102 894413 895595 898132 8001404 8001405 8004531 8012641 8015166 8015336 8015783 8019793 8020132 8023285 8023731 9003696 9005100 10008294 10008537 10008997 10014041 10016493 10017735 10018348 10018539 10018678 10020562.*ak please help push this if you can.
