SUSPENSION
I BROUGHT CAR IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. MECHANIC CALLED ME IN TO SHOW ME THE EXTREME RUST UNDER THE FRAME. IT IS FLAKING OFF IN CHUNKS AND ALMOST RUSTED THROUGH IN SOME PARTS. MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS NOT NORMAL AND I SHOULD CONTACT TOYOTA FOR POSSIBLE RECALL INFORMATION. I CONTACTED TOYOTA, BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FOR OVER ONE MONTH. *TR

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA INFORMING HIM THAT THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE HAD EXCESSIVE RUST. THE NOTICE ALSO INFORMED THE CONSUMERS THAT IF THEY INSPECT THE VEHICLE AND NOTICE EXCESSIVE RUST, THE MANUFACTURER WOULD REIMBURSE THEM FOR FINANCIAL LOSS AND POSSIBLY EXCHANGE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND IT FAILED. A REPRESENTATIVE FROM TOYOTA STATED THAT ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING AN IDENTICAL FAILURE, THEY WOULD NOT ASSUME ANY FINANCIAL LIABILITY BECAUSE THE TITLE WAS SALVAGED. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 77,000. UPDATED 06/02/08 *BF
