| Description of the problem | I have a 2010 camry approx 11,000+ mileage. I had my car checked for the brakes due to the popping sound when release brake pedal and clicking after putting car in reverse and then drive. Toyota responded: the sound you are hearing is normal operation of the brake system. When you shift from reverse into drive, the brake calipers mechanically adjust to the vehicle's forward motion. When this adjustment happens, a clicking sound can sometimes be heard. This is a normal characteristic of the vehicle and will not cause any issues to the brake system. I just dropped my car off again this morning to have repairs done for the recall after the first time telling me that it wasn't sticking; but i heard that it should still be repaired. I asked them to check the brakes again and the service rep said the sound doesn't sound normal. I'm extremely nervous driving the car and worried about the unknown of what can happen. I have been driving cars for many years and never had the brakes sound this way. |
