Front brakes/brakes are poorly designed/insufficient to handle the task of stopping the truck. Front brake rotor is warped from overheating. The truck vibrates badly when the brakes are applied, and pulls dangerously to the left. Toyota knows all this - it is in their tsb instructing dealers to replace/upgrade Tundra front brakes if still under warranty.

Bad brakes, lost control of truck in wet weather, I was slowing down from 70 to 40 on a off ramp when my brakes began to shutter then the front brakes locked up, I was able to regain control after nearly hitting a car, I went to the shoulder and pumped the brakes and manged to slow down. Ive had this truck in the shop 3 times for brake repair to no avail.I've gotten to the point that I don't drive this truck in wet weather.even in dry conditions the truck shakes and shimmeys. When applying the brakes.

I have a 2001 Toyota Tundra and have had constant problems with my brakes. There is strong vibration when using the brakes. I have had it "fixed" twice by Toyota and once by and independent mechanic and the problem comes back every time.there is a tsb on the truck but no recall. Toyota customers were not even informed of the tsb.

Vehicle would shutter severely when braking at 50 or more mph. Vehicle was taken to the dealer on several occasions and had the front rotors turned on two separate occasions. The problem kept recurring. Feel free to provide any further information concerning this issue.

2001 Toyota Tundra brake problem. Severe shaking of vehicle do to brakes. Rotors feel warped. Gone through 4 sets of pads and resurfaced rotors 3 timesi N the last 2 years. Tech serve bulliten available but only for 36000/3yr im at 50000/but only 1 1/2... $2000 for the repairs and on top of that I spent quite a bit ofmoney already for the rotor resurfacing and brake pads. I was a Toyota fan until this....

I have a 2001 Toyota Tundra. I feel that the braking system is not what it should be. I have had the rotors turned and new brake shoes put on, but I am still experiencing a bad shake in the brakes.

Repeated brake problems with heavy vibration when stopping. Front rotors are inadequate for this vehicle.

While vehicle was being driven extreme vibration occurred in front end.brake rotors prematurely wore out. Rotors have been resurfaced, and brakes have totally failed at times.problems has not been corrected. Dealer has determined that cause was brake fluid contamination.

Severe front disc vibration when brakes applied at around 45 mph.this was diagnosed by dealer as premature front rotor warping and repaired twice under warranty. Problem continues.Toyota of America has not issued a national recall campaign to once and for all permanently fix this issue through new product design/engineering.I recently discovered through an internet site called Tundra solutions.com that there are many more frustrated Tundra owners with this unresolved matter.please help us.

While driving at 65 mph vehicle started to shake, and when consumer tried to apply brakes, vehicle started to shake even more. Contacted dealer, and dealer noted that there was 9 faulty codes that have gone off.

From contact with other owners of this vehicle there seems to be a failure pattern with the brakes on this vehicle. The brake drums and rotors appear to be warping and requiring replacement after approximately 4000 miles of use. Toyota has issued tsb's to correct the problem but it does not appear to work from what other owners say. My son has the same vehicle and is on his third set of rotors with less than 15,000 miles on the truck. When I got my truck back with the new parts and applied the brakes on a long hill at 50 mph the vehicle went into a violent shaking motion and I thought control would be lost. It has not repeated this behavior but I question the safety of this vehicle.
