Through no fault of our own, the frame on our toyota truck has been discovered by our mechanic as rusted or corroded to an extend of unsafe driving conditions. toyota in response to my complaint replaced the spare tire carrier as a safety recall that never expires, however, they are telling me the frame is no longer under a warranty and is not a safety recall issue. the suggested i lodge a complaint with the nhtsa as they are unable and unwilling to do something for us. i uploaded 5 pictures, not sure if they are all there

The frame has many holes in it. was just told by mechanic when went in for rear differential work. they as i were surprised as the body shows no signs of rust. they did not complete work as they said frame so bad it is unsafe. i have owned other 2003 and 2004 tacoma's over the years which had frames recalled. this one does not have the frame recall and i am wondering is this a mistake or why not?

The frame is rusting out

I had tires rotated,technician told me frame is extremely rusted(tacoma problem) big safety problem.toyota told me they would check it out for 98,-- dollars. i don't think that's right. toyota problem

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 toyota tacoma. while the vehicle was undergoing an oil change, the contact was informed that the frame was rusted. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to autoland (170 us-22, springfield township, nj 07081, (800) 288-6526) where it was confirmed that the frame was rusted. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was contacted and provided case number: 1904301385. no further assistance was provided. the failure mileage was 67,000. *bf

The dealer discovered holes in the frame on 3/26/19. actually it was in for repair of a gas tank strap and i believe they used a hammer on the frame to make the holes. they wrote it up as my truck was unsafe to drive. it only has 81,000 miles on it and other wise in great shape. i had it in for a recalled rusted spare tire holder on 2/11/15 and the service manager told me that the frame looked ok and if the frame develops holes they can recommend a good welder.

2004 toyota tacoma, took truck in to be painted was informed that there are multiple baseball size holes in the frame and the leaf spring mounts are rusted and leaf springs are about to pop off. i have called toyota corp, and was told because truck was not sprayed they will not honor the frame. i recently acquired this vehicle and was not aware of the recall that had been issued on this truck. toyota at this point is refusing to replace or repair the frame even though this truck originated and remained in a cold climate state for most of its existence. please advise if there are any options available to have toyota honor this vehicle. thank yo u

Frame rusting out even after having undercoat sprayed in previous recall, after looking online i have found numerous people with the same year and model having their frame replaced by toyota under a recall, but i have been told repeatedly that there is not recall and toyota will do nothing.

Took truck in for inspection and the frame is deteriorating to the point the bed is becoming detached from the frame and separating from the cab. the suspension is coming loose from the mounts. this is not the only one the mechanic has seen with deterioration. these trucks are not safe to drive!!
