The frame had to be replaced by toyota due to excessive rust

Tl* the contact owns a 2009 toyota tacoma. the contact stated that the frame was rusted. the vehicle was taken to the dealer (joseph airport toyota in vandalia, ohio, 937-898-8060) where the technician offered to spraypaint over the rust, but the contact declined the offer. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to do what the dealer recommended, stating that if the failure continued, the frame would be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

The frame is covered by a recall. toyota is limiting it to certain states. i was in one of those states (maine). toyota says the car must be registered in one of those states. my registration ended at the end of october. we know live in florida which is not covered. the frame was inspected by a toyota dealership in florida that said it needed to be treated for rust. (recall). but because my registration changed they are using it as a reason not to cover vehicle. i believe it is a safety issue and that they are using loopholes not to cover all the vehicles that should be covered.
