STRUCTURE:BODY, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, SUSPENSION
FRAME MOUNT FOR GAS TANK HAS RUSTED AND FUEL TANK IS DROPPING DOWN. LAST YEAR AN UNDERCOATING WAS APPLIED BY A TOYOTA DEALER AND IS PEELING OFF IN CERTAIN AREAS. I BELIEVE PURSUANT TO THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REFERRED TO AS BRIAN WARNER ET AL TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION MY VEHICLE MAY BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THE GAS TANK STRAP MOUNTING IS PART OF THE FRAME. AS OF NOW, MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME NOT TO DRIVE IT AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I NOTICED THE TANK STRAP WAS HANGING DOWN FROM THE FRAME AND THE GAS TANK WAS ALSO HANGING DOWN WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY.

THE FRAME IS 80% ROTTED THROUGH WITH RUST. I'M SURE IT WILL BE DEEMED UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND UNFORTUNATELY WAITING ANY DAY FOR IT TO COMPLETELY FALL THROUGH. THE BED IS LITERALLY NOSEDIVING INTO THE FRONT BODY OF THE TRUCK.

I HAD A SAFETY RECALL FOR CORROSION AND HAD IT REPAIRED AT THE DEALERSHIP IN JULY, 2015. RECENTLY I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN EXHAUST LEAK. WHEN THEY PUT IT ON THE RACK THEY NOTED SEVERAL AREAS ON THE FRAME WHICH HAD RUSTED ALL THE WAY THROUGH. THE MECHANIC INFORMED ME THE TRUCK WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND THE FRAME NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF ANY RECALL AND THEREFOR TOYOTA WOULD NOT REPLACE THE FRAME. I BELIEVE THE SAME INFERIOR STEEL WAS USED ON MY FRAME AS WAS ON THE RECALLED TOYOTAS. I LIVE IN VIRGINIA WHICH WHILE WE DON'T EXPERIENCE THE LARGE AMOUNTS OF SNOW HERE, WE ARE STILL CONSIDERED A NORTHERN STATE PER TOYOTA. THE TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS USED AS A DAILY DRIVER AND NOW WILL BE A TOTAL LOSS.

AFTER I PURCHASED MY TUMDRA USED I NOTICED THE FRAME ON THIS TRUCK HAS A SEVERE RUST ISSUE WHICH I BELIEVE COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. LARGE CHUNKS OF RUST ARE COMING OFF OF THE FRAME I SPITE OF HAVING BEEN 'TREATED' BY TOYOTA IN 2015 DURING A RECALL CAMPAIGN . I POKED THE FRAME WITH A SCREW DRIVER IN ONE LOCATION AND WAS ABLE TO POKE A HOLE IN FRAME SINCE IT WAS SO WEAK FROM RUSTING. I FEAR THE TRUCK BREAKS IN 1/2 OR DOESN'T PROVIDE PROTECTION IN COLLISION. THIS TRUCK ONLY HAS 75K MILES AND IS IN REALLY GOOD CONDITION WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FRAME WHICH IS WAY WORSE THAN NORMAL SURFACE RUST I'VE SEEN. I HAVE READ THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXPERIENCE. WE NEED HELP GETTING TOYOTA TO PROVIDE A REMEDY TO MAKE OUR VEHICLES SAFE AGAIN. PICTURES ATTACHED

NHTSA ID #10140591 WAS THE CAMPAIGN THAT MY TRUCK WAS WARRANTIED UNDER, I AM EXACTLY 64 DAYS OUTSIDE OF TOYOTA'S EXTENDED WARRANTY AND MY TRUCK STARTED THROWING CODE P2442 BANK 2 SECONDARY AIR INJECTOR VALVE STAYING OPEN, A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS TRUCK. I ASKED TOYOTA ONLY FOR ASSISTANCE AND NOT THE COMPLETE REPAIR AND 3 REPS FLAT OUT SAID NO WE DID OUR PART. THE CAR WAS FINE YESTERDAY AND TODAY STARTED IT TO GO TO WORK AND MY TRACTION CONTROL, 4LO, VSC, ENGINE LIGHT WERE ALL ON, MY TRUCK WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" TOYOTA USA WAS USELESS.

OUR 2004 TUNDRA WITH 65,000 MILES WAS RECENTLY IDENTIFIED TO HAVE A RUSTY FRAME. WE PUT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT COULD BE DONE. THE DEALERSHIP DEEMED IT RUSTY TO THE POINT THAT IT COULD NOT BE COATED AND WAS A LOSS. WE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THE FRAME PROGRAME WAS FOR 2000-03 AND IS NOW EXPIRED AND OUR 2004 WASN'T COVERED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF TRUCKS ON THE ROAD THAT ARE STILL AFFECTED BY THE FAULTY FRAMES AND TOYOTA IS NOT DOING ANYTHING. THIS LEAVES CONSUMERS WITH A VEHICLE THAT IS WORTHLESS AND DANGEROUS. A RECALL IS NEEDED TO PROTECT OUR FAMILIES AND THE ROADS WE TRAVEL ON. WE ARE GOING TO START SEEING VEHICLES COME APART ON THE ROADS AND KILLING PEOPLE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY 2012 TUNDRA HAS JUST UNDER 70,000 MILES ON IT AND THE TRAC LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON YESTERDAY. HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THE MECHANIC SAYS THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SECONDARY AIR PUMP AND IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY KNEW OF THE PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THERE IS A CSP THAT COVERS CERTAIN 2012 TUNDRA'S. UNFORTUNATELY THE CSP ONLY COVERS THE 5.7 L. ENGINES AND NOT MY 4.6L MODEL. MY MECHANIC SAYS THAT EVERYTHING IS THE EXACT SAME SET UP AS FAR AS THE SECONDARY AIR PUMP, IT'S JUST A DIFFERENT SIZE ENGINE. NOT SURE WHY ONE IS COVERED BUT THE OTHER ISN'T BUT I'LL HAVE TO SUCK IT UP AND PAY THE PRICE. MAYBE IF MORE PEOPLE MAKE TOYOTA AWARE OF THIS THEY WILL EVENTUALLY COVER IT. I'M A TOYOTA FAN AND HAVE BEEN DRIVING THEM FOR 40 YEARS AND THIS WON'T PUSH ME AWAY BUT IT IS DISAPPOINTING.
