If this is true, either their pads are softer or discs are harder. Probability is that it's a problem with the pads. If they acknowlege it, one thing is likely: they will recall their cars for a fix or refund people who have had pad replacements. Toyota are very sensitive about any issues in their cars that may damage brand image.

Very valid. I experience it for 15 years in 5 countries. However, things in India is really strange one. Anyway, Let's see what Toyota says finally.

That being said, I drive Altis in Saudi Arabia and in Bangkok. I never faced this problem there.

 If the Pads had been softer, it wouldn't have scoured the discs! May be a problem with the Specs/Vendor. I too felt bad when reading this post. Toyota! delaying sorting out such problems!! Thats the reason I wanted Firdous to register a complaint.  It might be useful to raise the issue with their Vendors.




Never mind what others say, do whats right for that moment!

Roger that Sir ! Posted a complaint. Friendly Toyota guy from Banglore heard it all (yet again). Hours later, I got a call from the dealer asking "Sir what is actually the problem", I have requested him to type my Car Reg# in the database  

I'm still waiting.

When I was doing the TD of Altis recently and the team leader from the Dealer was in my office.  I discussed the same issue with him that there is a problem with brakes in Altis.

His answer was that in the earlier lots there was the brake issue with the cars and all the cars were recalled for the replacement.

I even told him that the car owners are still facing the issue.  He simply denied the facts.

But admitted that earlier this issue was there so cars were recalled and rectified.

I will discuss with them again this issue that recently bought cars are also facing these issues.

I have the same issue with Amana Toyota and I reported yesterday. And this is not the first time I am complaining about the break issue,  I have told them about  this problem when the car run about 3000 Km. They neglected by saying nothing to worry.



 
Anyway, I'm going to take it up a bit seriously, The alloy wheal is black on 40 kms run
