4Runner

  • miles
2003 Toyota 4runner has 3 faulty calipers 2 on front and one on the rear. The caliper uses a dual piston and the interior lower piston is the one that failed on both front calipers. This issue is know to thousands of Toyota owners who inquire (its common knowledge among those who own them.) the fact that both failed at the same time was incredibly dangerous I live in the mountains and losing both front brakes simultaneously is cause for great concern my safety is at risk as well as the safety of my passengers and everyone else. I am not sure why it has taken soo much effort from us (the owners of said vehicles and therefore caliper) to get this looked into. The calipers are of a faulty design and will fail prematurely putting human lives at risk. What more do you need" a person to die before this becomes credited information" just check out T4R.org to find any number of identical claims.
