VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAD MY VEHICLE REPAIRED BASED ON THE 2010 TOYOTA RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVED ABOUT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL NOW SOMETIMES STICKS IN THE HALF-OPEN POSITION AND REFUSES TO RETURN ON ITS OWN. I HAVE USED THE TOE OF MY FOOT TO PULL THE PEDAL BACK TO THE NON-ACCELATERATING POSITION. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, IF YOU TOUCH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE RPMS WILL INCREASE AND DECREASE ON THEIR OWN, AND EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK POSITION. THIS DOES NOT OCCUR EVERY TIME YOU OPERATE THE VEHICLE, BUT RANDOMLY, AND WITH NO PATTERN. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAS 3/4 TO 1 INCH OF "FREE PLAY" BEFORE IT RESPONDS AND FEEDS GAS TO THE ENGINE. OBVIOUSLY, THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IF SOMEONE BESIDES MYSELF WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE. TOYOTA INC DOES NOT SEEM TO UNDERSTAND WHY THEIR "FIX" TO YOUR ORIGINAL RECALL ABOUT THIS DOES NOT WORK, OR THEY HAVE CREATED AN ADDITIONAL PROBLEM WITH THEIR "FIX" TO THE 2010 RECALL.

THE FRAME ON MY 2001 TOYOTA TUNDRA WAS COATED WITH A CORROSIVE RESISTANT COMPOUND [CRC] PER BILL KIDD TOYOTA DEALER IN 2012 DUE TO "SAFETY RECALL BOD & 90M & SERVICE CAMPAIGN AOF." IN 2015, PRIORITY TOYOTA [VA] STATED MY FRAME HAD RUST PERFORATIONS & NEEDED A FULL FRAME REPLACEMENT. PRIORITY TOLD ME TO CONTACT TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS ASAP TO EXPLAIN THE DANGEROUSNESS OF THE VEHICLE'S COMPROMISED STRUCTURE. MY CASE MANAGER AT HEADQUARTERS, AUTUMN, & ANOTHER REPRESENTATIVE [ERICA] INFORMED ME THAT TOYOTA WON'T OFFER AN OUT OF WARRANTY ASSISTANCE NOR A "GOOD WILL GESTURE." BOTH EXPLAINED THAT HEADQUARTERS HAS APPROVED FRAME REPLACEMENTS AFTER THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN'S EXPIRATION BASED ON THE FOLLOWING: REPAIR COSTS [I WAS TOLD REPAIRS ON MY TUNDRA WERE CONSIDERED 'EXTENSIVE,'] AGE/MILEAGE, CUSTOMER LOYALTY AND SERVICE RECORDS. I WAS DENIED A FULL FRAME REPLACEMENT; HOWEVER, I'M IN CONTACT WITH ANOTHER TOY CONSUMER WHO EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH A 2001 TUNDRA WITH APPROX THE SAME MILEAGE WHO HAD THE FRAME REPLACED THIS YEAR. WHEN I SHARED THESE CONCERNS WITH HEADQUARTER'S SUPERVISOR, JESSIE HAYWOOD, HE STATED: "THE CRC HAS NOT BEEN EFFECTIVE AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT" AS HE IS AWARE OF HUNDREDS OF TUNDRA, SEQUOIA, AND TACOMA CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED RUST PERFORATION ON THE FRAMES DESPITE THE CRC APPLICATION. MR. HAYWOOD RECOMMENDED THAT I CONTACT THE NHTSA RE MY SAFETY CONCERNS AS WELL AS MY REPORT THAT TOYOTA HAS OFFERED "SECRET WARRANTIES" TO SOME CONSUMERS BUT NOT OTHERS. HE REPORTED "THIS IS ILLEGAL" & "TOYOTA WOULD BE FINED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IF THIS IS THE CASE." THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF TOYOTA OWNERS DRIVING VEHICLES WITH UNSAFE FRAMES DUE TO "SEVERE CORROSION" AS DESCRIBED BY TOYOTA ITSELF. DURING INSPECTIONS, THESE VEHICLES HAVE SNAPPED ON THE LIFT.THE CONSUMERS NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE AS DO THE INNOCENT BYSTANDERS WHO SHARE THE SAME ROADWAYS.

NOTIFIED OF SAFETY RECALL ON OR ABOUT 6/16/2015, DEALER# D3F, NHTSA ID# 15V285 AND AN INTERIM NOTICE SOMETIME AFTER THAT FOR FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATORS. AS OF YET NO PARTS HAVE BEEN AVAILABLE IN NJ. AND NO PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? TAKATA APPARENTLY KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SINCE EARLY 2013 AND PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE?? AND WHILE MY VEHICLE WASN'T ADDED TO THE LIST UNTIL 6/2015, THE COMPANY KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM WELL BEFORE THAT. HAVING TO WAIT 4-6 MONTHS (IF I'M LUCKY) FOR A RECALLED PART IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I REALIZE THERE ARE MANY, MANY VEHICLES INVOLVED BUT REALLY?? SOME PEOPLE MAY ACTUALLY NOT HAVE THEIR VEHICLES FULLY OPERATIONAL OR SAFE FOR UPWARDS OF 2.5 YEARS? IS TAKATA OR TOYOTA GOING TO PAY US FOR THE TIME THESE VEHICLES ARE NOT FULLY OPERATIONAL BECAUSE WHEN I BOUGHT MY TRUCK I INTENDED ON GETTING FULL SAFE USE OUT OF IT NOT PARTIAL USE. SORRY TO BLOW OFF STEAM ON YOU BUT I AM VERY FRUSTRATED, DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED WITH THIS WHOLE SITUATION AS I'M SURE MANY OTHERS ARE. IN ANY EVENT, IF YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON WHEN THIS PART WILL BE AVAILABLE IN NJ PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

THE FRAME WAS SERIOUSLY RUSTING. TOYOTA HAD A RECALL FOR THIS WHICH WAS NOT NOTIFIED TO ME VIA MAIL. ONE OF THE ARGUMENT FROM TOYOTA NOT TO DO THIS RECALL IS THAT TIME WINDOW IS OVER (AT THE SAME TIME ONE OF THEIR ASSOCIATE TOLD THAT THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT FOR A SAFETY RECALL). THE INSPECTION DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT INCLUDING THE DAMAGE ON THE FRAME IN THE INSPECTION. IN THE RECALL FOR FRAME REPLACEMENT, WHAT I GOT REPLACED IS THE CABLE HOLDING THE SPARE TIRE ONLY (SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE TIRE MAY FALL DOWN) IGNORING THE SERIOUS HOLE AND RUST IN THE ACTUAL FRAME. HERE IS THE PICTURE OF MY FRAME WHICH THE CONDITION IS CLEARLY VISIBLE.

I WENT TO A CERTIFIED TOYOTA DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE FEW DAYS AGO AND THEY NOTIFIED ME ABOUT THE MASSIVE CORROSION ON THE FRAME THAT DO NOT REFLECT THE AGE OR THE OVERALL CONDITION OF MY VEHICLE. THEY STRONGLY RECOMMEND ME TO STOP DRIVING THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY DUE TO THE HIGH DEGREE OF DAMAGE ON THE ENTIRE BODY. I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FROM GRIECO MAZDA OF DELRAY BEACH ON 10/13/15. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED AT ALL PRIOR TO SELL IT TO ME BECUASE GRIECO MAZDA DID NOT MENTION THIS MASSIVE CORROSION WHILE DOING THE BUSINESS.

IN DEC. 2014 I HAD MY TOYOTA INSPECT THE FRAME ON MY TUNDRA. UNDER THERE PROGRAM IF THERE IS NO HOLES THEY WOULD UNDERCOAT IT. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO HOLES. IN OCTOBER 2015 I TRIED TO GAT IT INSPECTED AND IT FAILED FOR THE FRAME. I WAS TOLD THE TRUCK WAS IN GREAT SHAPE EXCEPT THE FRAME. IT ONLY HAS 76K MILES ON IT. THEY SPRAYED OVER THE HOLES. NOW THE BOOKS ARE CLOSED AND TOYOTA WON'T REPLACE THE FRAME.
