 Description of the problemOn january 19, 2009 my 2007 toyota sienna front rotors & brake pads failed round- trip from san francisco to orange county. Mileage read: 20,939; & again on 01-12-2010 when mileage was 30,128. There were no warning lights, or notification by mechanic or service providers at regular maintenance checkups about wear or compromised rotors & pads. In advance of each incident. Maintenance had been regularly scheduled. On january 19, 2009 , brake rotors failed showing deeply scratches and were fused with the pads. On january 12, 2010 rotors required resurfacing but pads were ok. I contacted power toyota dealership in irvine,ca. About these concerns; their response indicated a design flaw as the pads are of made pf harder material than rotors thus wearing rotors before pads and fusing the two metals together. I had several return calls from their specialist ,a mechanical engineer formerly with gm. No solutions were offered and no followup received after i inquired if the dealer would replace the manufacturer's pads with softer ones(aftermarket) as a test. It was made clear even if after-market pads were installed, they might not last more than 5-6 thousand miles. I have concerns that the brakes will fail again and cause potential injury and damage to me or passengers or to others; certainly damage also means replacement of the rotors even if the pads do not show wear. I am reporting this as a flaw in mechanical/product design and manufacture of the 2007 sienna; intentional oversight or not,it is a lack of mitigation for the brake system that poses a potentially hazard. I believe the sienna van, intended for family and light loads, poses a brake risk while driving and additional expense and worry about rotor/brake failure . It is contrary to the experience i had with my earlier 300k toyota van (1985); my satisfaction with it led me to purchase the 2007 sienna which i now regret. I am asking toyota to replace the brake system or provide a new model van.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
