Parking brake noise

[Kjc]

Hey guys I've had my New Tacoma about 5 weeks.. It's my first new vehicle in awhile.. When I got it I noticed the parking brake noise when it activates and basicly I watched on our outside camera and it seems loud... Is this normal? I'm hoping so.... Loving my TRD OR so far thanks for any feed back... Also I know it's been mentioned but my engine fan comes on and off all the time maybe 2-3 times a minute when at a stop light... $50k truck just wanna make sure everything is good

Mine sounds the same. Perfectly normal.

Had a handful of new vehicles that had electric parking brakes , they all make that noise when engaging .

Happy that it engages and disengages automatically. Rented a mazda that you had to disengage it every time you put it in drive , it was irritating.

Thanks for the replies... Ya I'm coming from a 97 Camry... I like that it's automatic... But the noise seemed loud... When I first got the truck I thought it was the turbos ...

Normal, and if it makes you feel better, my Lexus RX350 also makes the same noise

That’s awesome must feel like a spaceship compared to the Camry! Hope you enjoy it

Normal. Same. I wish the dealer would tell you these things though!
