Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have 2002 toyota sequoia suv and in 78,000 miles i have had to resurface or replace the front rotors six different times, which averages about 12,000 for each rotor failure. the failure is severe warping of the rotor which cause violent shaking and steering problems over 45 miles per hour. the dealership wants me to pay for it each time ( out of warranty)but i feel it is a design flaw and a safety hazard and am surprised they have not issued a safety recall. *jb
