“I bought a 2002 4runner sport from jim barkley Toyota in asheville nc. Shortly after purchasing the vehicle I noticed a vibration in the brakes. I had them checked and was told the rotors were warped and had them turned. A few months later it happened again ,and I had to put a new set on. Then once again I had to replace them, when we did we also replaced the pads and the entire system was not working and we brought the vehicle to the dealership to have it looked at, and they worked on it and stated that it would be $3000 to fix it because the calipers and actuator would need replacing. …”
