| Description of the problem | i have a 04 double cab toyota tundra. Wife was driving and trying to stop . When she pressed the brake pedal truck kept on rolling and smashed into the car in front of her. An inspection was done on my truck and they said nothing was wrong but it was totaled by the body shop so there was nothing to change or fix. I've been looking at a web site called tundra solutions and there is more people with this same braking problem or brake fade as the call it. Please feel free to call me to get more info. *nm |
