The front end of the vehicle shimmied when the brakes were applied. No grinding noise was heard. The manufacturer has a TSB for this problem but they refuse to fix the consumer's vehicle because it is out of warranty.

I am the original owner and my 2000 Tundra has always had extreme vibration when braking. The dealer has replaced the brake rotors several times and the vibration returns again and again. The vibration always gets worse if you have to slam on the brakes in an emergency. The frontend feels like it is going to being torn apart when the anti-lock breaking system is engaged, there is a horrible grinding noise with wheel hop with vibration at the time. This also happens under wet condtions when braking. The rotors are then damaged and you notice a constant vibration under breaking after that. The vibration is much more severe at highway speeds. Passengers always notice the vibrations when braking anytime. The vibration is also felt in the steering column and brake pedal. Every owner that I have spoken with has this same problem. I am shocked that the NHTSA has never addressed this issue.
