Consumer Description

OUR 1997 TOYOTA T100 EXTENDED CAB IS FALLING APART WITH RUST. THE BUMPER PULLED COMPLETELY OFF AND THE BED MOVES AS IF IT WILL BREAK AWAY FROM THE CAB. THE SIDE STEPS (YOU STEP ON TO CLIMB UP INTO THE TRUCK) HAVE RUSTED AND BROKEN OFF AS WELL). WE HAVE TO DRIVE IT, BUT FEAR A TRAGIC ACCIDENT WILL OCCUR. THIS TRUCK HAS FAR MORE RUST THAN EVEN THE RECALLED TACOMAS WE SAW BOUGHT BACK BY TOYOTA. WE WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO RECALL AND BUY BACK THE T100S AS WELL. *TR
