1 Brake Drum Wheel Cylinder problem

Failure Date: 08/14/2004

(1) on 7/30/03 at 5796 miles, only 10 months after purchasing a 2002 Toyota Tundra (9/27/2002), I experienced a violent vibration during light braking at speeds of 45-60 mph. 2) concerned for my and other motorists' safety, I took it in to the kirkland Toyota dealership. (3) kirkland Toyota completed the front brakes campaign and replaced the following under op code br2005: calipers, brake pads, wheel bearings, backing plate, turn rotors, and tubes. They also bled the brakes and torqued the wheels. (1) on 8/13/04, at 10494 miles, I noticed that the violent vibration had returned. (2) concerned for my and other motorists' safety, I took it in to the kirkland Toyota dealership again. (3) kirkland Toyota test drove the vehicle and found the TSB on rear brake vibration, op code 472151 combo code a. The service dept. Relaced both rear drums. (1) the following day, 8/14/04 I test drove the vehicle and discovered that the violent vibration during light braking had increased, now occurring on both grades and flat surfaces. (2) my next step is to contact the dealership again, but I am not encouraged that a solution will be found.
