Brakes Squeal

[Esquire]

Nothing on mine yet. But the GX550 has the same issue, and they already have a fix on service bulletin L-SB-0036-24. It's almost a carbon copy of the one I had on my Tundra which was traded in on my LC.

Is that the same bulletin for the Land Cruiser?

Fresh off the press - A SERVICE BULLETIN has either just come out or is about to come out regarding the 250 LC BREAK SQUEAL!!! I just got a call from the Toyota mothership brand representative asking me if the dealership has been in contact with me yet (I put in a complaint to the mother ship), and that the mothership is going to call me back to make sure the dealer resolves the issue. The rep said that a service bulletin was either just released or is about to come out.

Good to hear. Mine just did it for the first time.

Nope, but the front brakes should be the same.

Mine squeaked for a day, until I did approx 20 moderate to hard stops from about 40 mph, seems to have fixed itself.

Mine did too, but the squealing eventually came back.

It seems to be related to moisture and temp.

Ours did it until we got into full winter conditions and has since stopped. Only did it when the vehicle was cold, the ambient temp was above freezing, and humid.

brand new LC 250 which squeaks first thing the in the morning backing out of my driveway. None for the day after that

Does anyone else exerience brakes squeel in reverse? Mine seems to do it mostly after it has sat for a while. I only notice it in reverse.

It usually only happens once and in the morning. I figure it’s condensation from sitting overnight. I’ve read on the forum that others are having a chronic issue.

Asked my Service Advisor about it... they said it was pretty standard across Toyota hybrids.. and nothing to worry about. Guess if a service bulletin comes out I will bring it back.
FWIW, its winter here, temps as low as -30c, but stored in an unheated but insulated garage at night. Squeal happens when backing out in the am.

At least forty eleven of us…
