Two problems related to brake disc have been reported for the 2002 Toyota Sequoia. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2002 Toyota Sequoia based on all problems reported for the 2002 Sequoia.
The front brake rotors have warped for the second time causing excessive front end vibration when braking. The steering wheel oscillates to the extent that braking from highway speeds is unstable. I had to resurface both front rotors at 8500 and 22000 miles to remove run out. This is unacceptable for a $40k vehicle that has only seen normal use and is regularly maintained.
When driving at 35 to 40 mph or more and brakes are applied a very strong vibration will shake the hole vehicle even at curves. This represents a strong safety hazard. This vibration is not normal, dealer replaced front disk pads and repaired the disks but considering the low millage its hard to belive pads where worn out. I think something is not wright. I made some research in this sites and found other customers with same or similar situation with the Toyota pick up v8 (tundra) -.
