Grinding or squealing brakes by model year
What owners say
Going slowly over pitted road noticed squeaking on rear end and brought to a mechanic. Was told frame cracked through due to frame rust. Vehicle is unable to be repaired. Toyota had a service bullitin but I was never notified and it expired in may of 2000. They will not honor their warranty extension despite the vehicle being serviced at dealership.
Shortly after purchasing the used 1995 tacoma, under normal driving conditions, the middle rear driver's spring apparently broke and came in contact with shock, causing hard squeaking. Checking with local suspension repair shops and junkyards, all parties indicate how common an occurance this is. Several junkyards stated they cannot keep enough of these replacement springs in stock.
Struck deer at 60mph-solid causing $65000 in damage, airbag did not deploy, struck gaurd rail at 40mph drivers front corner airbag did not deploy. Squeaking coming from rear or vehicle especially over speed bumps, leaf springs?. Factory differential failed at 65000miles, dealer refused to consider warranty, replaced with used with 16000 miles, it failed at 127000miles. Fact. Trans 2cd gear syncro failed at 124000 mi. Replaced with '96 unit 16000mi. 3rd gear syncro is failing, I do not tow or haul with truck. If I could afford it I'd get rid of it, nothing but problems.
Noticed a bad ride with excessive squeaking.had vehicle inspected by mechanic who verified both springs were cracked.
