STRUCTURE:BODY
AT ABOUT 30 MPH, WE HIT A BUMP, AND THE FUEL TANK STRAP FELL OFF OUR TOYOTA TACOMA DOUBLE CAB. WHEN WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE TOYOTA DEALER, WHERE WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED SINCE PURCHASING IT NEW IN 06, WE WERE TOLD THAT THE FRAME IS PERFORATED DUE TO RUST AND THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALER SUGGESTED WE CONTACT TOYOTA, WHICH WE DID. BOTH THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND HIS SUPERVISOR TOLD US THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THE SUPERVISOR ALSO SAID THERE IS NO ONE ELSE ABOVE HER AT TOYOTA WHO TAKES PHONE CALLS. WE HAVE BEEN LOYAL TOYOTA CUSTOMERS, PURCHASING 8 NEW TOYOTA VEHICLES IN THE LAST 30 YEARS. WE PRESENTLY HAVE 3 TOYOTAS, AND WE ARE APPALLED THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT REMEDY THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE ON THE TACOMA. *TR
