We left our truck at a toyota dealership for repair of rattle in front end, state inspection and oil change. The vehicle was returned to us without repair as there is an abnormal amount of rust on the frame and holes through the frame. We were informed that the vehicle will not pass inspection. I called toyota customer service and was informed that our vehicle is not included in the previous recall, but may be…

As i was driving home my truck started making a noise from the back end. When i got home i looked at the underside of the truck and both spring shackles were rusted away and holes in the frame above them. The frame is completely rusted and i am unable to drive it because it could cause an accident. I called toyota about it and they said we apologize for the problem but we aren't going to fix it. *tr

Returning home with my grandson from visiting a state university i head a knocking sound in the front of the vehicle. I thought a rubber bushing had failed because previous models of toyotas (tercels) made the same sound when the torsion bar bushings needed to be replaced. Upon returning home i found the sway bar had come out of the left bracket which secures it to the frame and was striking the front left spring of…

I received a recall for frame rust which i responded to on july 11, 2014. They treated my truck frame with a chemical and under coating saying there was no rust through and my frame would not be replaced. Six months later i have rust through on the frame and they will not do any further repairs on it. I feel they just covered up the rust problem so i wouldn't see it and now its a problem. Please help to remedy the…

My 2006 toyota tacoma frame is terribly rusted even though i have had it cleaned and undercoated for beginners. But my main issue is the fact that my leaf springs already need replaced. They have been making creaking noises for several months because they are junk already. But then, the left side leaf spring completely cracked and that's not even effected by the rust. It's very frustrating to pay so much just to try…

I discovered that the frame on my toyota truck is excessively rusted. It is actually quite unbelievable when you compare the frame to everything else on the underside of the truck. Every other component on the underside is in pristine condition but there is hardly an area of the frame that is not rusted. There are some areas that have the classic "potato chip" scaling that has eaten through about 1/2 the original…

On 2/15/2014 i changed the tires on my truck and noticed that the frame is experiencing severe rust nearly everywhere. I took the truck to the local dealership for routine maintenance based on the mileage. At that time i explained to the service department representative at the dealership my concern regarding the amount of rust to the frame and might this become a safety problem leading to a failure. The dealership…

I received a recall notice for replacement of leaf springs on my 2006 tacoma in february 2014. Called dealership to discuss necessary work on february 2015. I was told that no decision on fixing the issue has been made by toyota. I am not having any failure issues but i am concerned that if this is a safety recall, why is it toyota is dragging out the decision to act? They claim it is a possibility of leaf spring…
