    Noticed my truck has some vibration while slowing down, between 25-15 mph roughly.

    Does not matter if I'm on the brakes or just coasting, you can feel it.

    Seems to be more pronounced during the first few minutes of driving after a cold start when the truck has sat for a long time.

    2020 TRD OR all stock. First noticed this around 3500 miles after doing some light off roading. Yes, light off roading. Truck still tracks straight and drives as it should. No damage.

    I did not notice this before that at all. It absolutely was not a thing. Truck currently has around 4200 mi.

    Anyone else? I've seen some talk of this sort of thing, but not on a 2020 yet.

    Yep. Test drove one on a lot that had it. “Normal” is what the dealer/tech/toyota will tell you. Even though a tsb has existed since 2016 for this exact same issue.

    That’s definitely abnormal. My Tacoma and a short term TRD OR rental never exhibited such behavior. Warranty claim for sure. My guess? The rear drums may be out of round.

    Ugh mine does it but I thought I was just crazy. I’ve been hesitant to bring it in because I know I’ll get upset when they tell me it’s normal.

    I am not experiencing that with my 2020 Pro. Doesn't sound at all normal.

    It's not a death wobble, but it's noticeable. Wasn't doing it before. Could be an out of balance tire, but would probably do it at any speed if so.

    It's not just you. You ain't crazy.

    I have about 2 and half k on mine. Haven’t noticed it and I don’t brake heavy I usually coast to a stop.

    Yeah, funny thing is it didn't do this for the first 3,000+ miles and now it does.

    Yeah, braking doesn't seem to have any effect on it.

    Mine does it too. I’ve got a 2020 Tacoma TRD off-road. From approximately 25-15 mph, when braking, i feel the vibration. They , dealership, said it was because a 2” leveling kit was installed in the front and 1” blocks in the rear. I really don’t think that has anything to do with it.
