At 30k, my Toyota dealer told me I had 10% left on the front brakes. I found that hard to believe, so I took it to my mechanic for a 2nd opinion. His inspection revealed that 60% was left. I brought it in for the VSC light (warranty item). This sounds like a trend among Toyota dealers. Pretty easy way to turn a free warranty repair into a $$ maker for the dealer. I know there are good, honest dealers out there, but after reading many posts on this web site, and my own experience, I wonder if Toyota corporate teaches this kind of tactic to service managers. No offense to the honest ones out there -- just an observation.
