Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2005-2011 Toyota Tacoma Pre-Runner and 4x4 vehicles manufactured September 14, 2009, to October 11, 2010. In the affected vehicles, one of the leaf springs may fracture due to stress or corrosion. While being driven, the broken leaf could move out of position and contact surrounding components including the fuel tank, possibly puncturing the tank and causing a fuel leak.
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2008-2014 FJ Cruiser and Tacoma vehicles equipped with accessory wheels and tires installed by Toyota or dealers prior to the vehicle's first sale. The affected vehicles may list incorrect spare tire size and/or cold tire inflation information on the tire placard. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims for Passenger Cars."
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2006-2008 RAV4, 2006-2010 Yaris, 2008-2010 Highlander, and 2009-2010 Tacoma, Corolla, Corolla Matrix and General Motors Pontiac Vibe vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the steering column assembly contains electrical connections to the driver's airbag module housed in a spiral cable assembly, which includes a Flexible Flat Cable (FFC). Due to the shape and location of the FFC's retainer, the FFC could become damaged when the steering wheel is turned.
The vehicle's structure (frame) is failing. A recall for corrosion susceptibility was disseminated for the make and model of my vehicle. A coating was applied to the frame, and I was then told by Malloy Toyota that rust will now NOT become a problem for the frame, as "it's been properly treated according to Toyota's standards following the recall." However, upon State Inspection yesterday, 9/21/26, I was told that much Rust Damage exists on the frame. The vehicle is available now for immediate inspection. My safety is immediately put at risk because I'm driving a vehicle whose structure is now compromised by the recall Toyota said they "prevented" and therefore fixed. The problem has indeed been confirmed by an independent service center. The vehicle has only been inspected by the independent service center for VA State Inspection. No warning indicating that the vehicle's frame was rusting. The issue was first brought to my attention after yesterday's VA State Inspection on 9/21/26

Took 2010 Toyota Tacoma to independent garage for a problem with tire pressure sensor. The sensor was fixed, however employee of the garage made us aware that there was substantial rust/corrosion on the Tacoma frame. Have made 2 calls this last week to the Toyota Customer Relations/Brand Engagement specialist. Gave the representative all information that we have on the truck and talked to them about the rusted/corroded frame. They had stated that on our particular vehicle that Toyota had sent us out on 11/2017 and 11/2018 a warranty enhancement letter that had addressed this problem. We have never received either of these communications from Toyota, because if we had, we would have pursued this information with them. The main reason I know we would have pursued this, is that prior to the purchase of this truck we owned a 2000 Toyota Tacoma with a rusted frame recall and was able to have that issued resolved with Toyota. Toyota now says that the Warranty Enhancement program has expired, and there is nothing that they can do for us to resolve the rust issue. I stated to them that their records may showed that it was mailed twice to us, but we never received it, because if we had, we would have remembered it, given our prior Tacoma truck rust issue, and not just disregarded it. We have taken several pictures of the rust on the frame of the Tacoma, and never once did Toyota asked to have us forward them on to them. The pictures that we have show the degree of rust/corrosion/holes on the frame. I feel as they were not at all concerned with the safety of driving this truck and it’s declining frame safety. We were the only owner of this truck and bought it brand new in 2009. Because we feel there is definite safety issue to us, we are very disappointed with Toyota’s response.

The passenger side lower A arm frame mount broke, due to frame rust. The truck has been taken to Toyota, they had the truck for about 6 weeks and have refused to fix the safety issue.This year model had a recall on the frame, it was taken in for the recall, but the recall has failed. When the lower A arm frame mount broke, I just happened to be in a parking lot. If I had been driving it, I could have killed someone, or could have been killed myself.
