09 brake question

Thanks for the comments, I'll have it looked at. I was hoping to stay clear of the dealership, but I need to get over that.

 

that sucks

 

Took a look under the hood today, there is an aluminum canister of sorts just to the left of the brake master cylinder. It shakes and makes the noise I've been hearing when I depress the brakes.

My neighbor (a mechanic of sorts) says it shouldn't do that, that it is part of the brake/steering booster system.

So I called my local dealer today to schedule the pedal cutting, ECU reflash and have them look at this noise, they told me fine, and to bring it in Monday at 8 AM, didn't take my name or information of any type (vehicle etc) and hung up

Everyone in town seems to have nothing good to say about the dealer, O'brian auto park of Urbana Illinois. Does anyone have experience with them?

Thanks

 

I still haven't had this noise start yet. But I have a load click when going from forward to reverse. The dealer says it the calipers rocking back and forth. But of course its "normal"

 

I just took delivery of my 13 trd of road today. First thing i noticed after initial acquaintance of the truck is the slight buzzing in the pedal associated with a slight wooshing sound as well... Also when shutting down truck it makes a loud click and whirring motor noise that has a bit of a high pitched whine to it (kind of like s a vacuum cleaner). So i hear on here its normal AND its not normal...i guess I'll ask the dealer.Hope its ok! First new vehicle, kind of concerned. The buzzing feel is on the uncomfortable side of annoying.any additional thoughts appreciated.

 

I asked my dealership to check out the brake pedal squishing noise. It is so annoying! They said they went out to three other new trucks on their lot and all 3 had that same noise so it is normal. I asked "what if all 4 of the trucks are bad?" They said it is a normal thing with Tacoma brakes and has been around for years. I asked "What if Tacoma brakes have been bad for years and the problem has been ignored by corporate?" They said that they can't do anything about it until corporate comes out with a TSB and/or changes the brake system. Why do I feel like I am in a duel with a 5-year old child whenever I discuss "normal" vehicle problems to a dealership?
