Toyota corolla vibration

When braking, we have had vibration problems with out Toyota 2009 Corolla. We recently had the brakes checked (ok) and rotated tires only to find the rear tires have cupping. Now the vibration is worse, of course, because of the tires, but there still seems to be another issue because there are "lunges" while braking. Any suggestions?

Could be worn down rotors (the big metal disc). The thinner rotor will not dissipate heat during braking and the pads get too hot to be able to grip the rotor and while braking you get a shudder effect

Check also the rear suspension as this can cause font tire wear un evenly

SOURCE: 2003 toyota corolla low brake fluid

The fluid level will drop when the brake pads and or shoes wear thinner. A good way to check for a hydraulic fluid leak is Shut engine off step down on the brake pedal and hold it for 3 minutes. The pedal should not slowly drop. It will go down and hold.

SOURCE: How do I remove brake drum on 2005 toyota corolla

Under normal circumstances, the drum should slide right off once the wheel is removed.

If you have built up rust holding it on, there are two threaded holes near the center of the drum to aid in removal.
Insert two 12mm bolts into the holes and, while adding plenty of lubricant, turn the bolts in even amounts until they push the drum off.
Be sure to keep them lubed, as they will strip out easily if not.

If you have aftermarket drums without the holes or the screwholes are stripped out, smacking the face of the drum with a dead blow hammer will help free it up, but takes much longer for success.
