Brakes SQUEAL while backing

[owtlaw]

I have a new 2025 Land Cruiser. After the first couple of days every time I backup and apply the brakes they SQUEAL. Took it to the dealership and they conducted a "safety Inspection" but said Toyota was aware but offered NO solution. You would think that with the money invested in a new vehicle they could fix a brake squeal. Any suggestions???????

@ricochet - Your video shows the brake squeal at 14:39 that so many of us hear! I wonder if we should all send this to Toyota to get a fix?

Welcome to the asylum owtlaw.

There are 20 eleven other threads that mention this problem. All agree to call Toyota Brand Engagement @(800) 331-4331 and let your displeasure be known to them. Some think that the more complaints they get, the more likely they are to issue a TSB, like Lexus did for their customers.. At least one other inmate has said to contact NTSB and complain to them.

Welcome aboard and I feel (and hear) your pain - Had an LC FE for 11 months and still have the brake squeal, but it does seem to be occurring less over time.
