I purchased a 2001 Toyota Tundra in March of 2007. I have had problems with the front brakes warping the rotors. I have since found that there was a service bulletin on the brake problems in 2002 on this model. The bulletin required a larger brake caliper and pads because the system was to small to handle the truck weight. The factory installed system was heating up and causing the problem. My contention is this should be a safety issue since factory installed brakes are not large enough to handle the truck. I have taken the truck to mechanics on three occasions. Rotors have been turned, but the problem continues. Mechanics from these locations and from a Toyota dealership advise me the problem will continue until the bulletin called for calipers are installed. With the problem as it is, the truck is hard to stop when breaking from 50 mph and up.

When applying the brakes there was a vibration that caused the whole truck to vibrate. The dealership knew about this problem and did nothing because the vehicle's warranty expired.
