Consumer Description

MY 2001 TOYOTA TACOMA HAS A PERFORATED FRAME. I WAS ISSUED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA EXPLAINING THE OPTIONS. ONE OPTION WAS TO REPLACE MY FRAME. THE OTHER OPTION WAS FOR TOYOTA TO BUY BACK MY VEHICLE AT 1.5 % OF EXCELLENT KELLY BLUE BOOK. I WAS NOT GIVEN THE BUY BACK OPTION AND THEY ARE TRYING TO FORCE THE FRAME REPLACEMENT ON ME. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THE REMEDY THEY HAVE SELECTED FOR ME. THIS VEHICLE MAY NEVER BE THE SAME AFTER THE FRAME IS REPLACED. THIS IS NOT ANY EASY FIX . TO MANY PARTS ARE INVOLVED AND I WAS INFORMED IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 2 MONTHS TO COMPLETE THESE REPAIRS. *TR
