Strangely, a couple of Toyotas of mine have had warped front rotors after 
having new tires put on; it would seem that the lug nuts were tightened 
either excessively, or not with rotational gentilitiy.  Too late to find out 
after the brake pedal starts dancing around, but I always suspect the 
combination of teen agers and an air wrench could be the problem.

Or maybe Toyotas just have sissy front brakes ... my other makes/several 
cars never developed this problem ... yet ...
