2013 Toyota Tundra Brakes Problems

“Brakes do not function properly nor consistently. I am honestly concerned (if not afraid) about a sporadic noise I am hearing and have continued to hear and experience since I purchased this truck. The noise is a thud and a feeling at the brake pedal along with a greatly increased amount of stopping distance necessary to successfully bringing the vehicle to a complete stop. …”

“I was pulling into my driveway, about to park. When I braked it was as if the power in the power brakes had failed. I had to stomp on the pedal. I nearly hit my house. This was one week ago. Today, as I left a parking lot, I noticed it happen again: very little stopping power, but no softness in the pedal. I placed the transmission in park and saw no brake fluid under the truck. I began driving slowly again, and had to stomp the pedal to obtain braking power. The brake light suddenly came on. …”

“Backing out of my driveway, with the engine running, I tried to stop the vehicle but the brake pedal was spongy and pushed all the way to the floor without stopping the truck. I had to continue to pump the brakes and attempt to stop the truck until it finally came to a rest in the street. It was as if there was no power assist to the brakes. The brake system thought the engine was off, despite the engine having warmed up for about five minutes.”

“On 08/22/14, I had been to the local Toyota dealership to have my oil changed. I asked them to look at the brakes because there was a terrible vibration and the brakes have not stopped well since I bought the truck. They said the truck needed new brakes, rotors and pads all the way around. I was supposed to take it back on 08/29/14. On 08/28/14 while driving on a clear road with no rain or clouds I went to stop and I pushed the brakes to the floor with both feet and the truck did not stop and I hit another car. …”
