Consumer Description

FRONT ROTORS KEEP WARPPING. TURNED THE ORIGINAL SET AT 40000, THEN REPLACED THEM WITH SLOTTED ROTORS, WHICH HAVE NOW WARPPED. UNDERSTAND THERE IS A TECHINNCAL SERVICE BULLETIN STATING THE REAR BRAKES DO NOT SELF ADJUST, SUBSEQUENTLY INCREASING THE BRAKE LOAD ON THE FRONT, CAUSING THE WARPPING. THE REAL FIX MIGHT BE TO FIX THE REAR BRAKES. APPLY THE BRAKES AND THE FRONT WHEELS SHUDDER OR SHIMMY OFFICALLY CALLED "PULSATION" INCREASED WHEN BRAKING ON A DOWNHILL OR WITH SOME LOAD IN THE BED. TOYOTA SHOULD FIX THIS!!!
