Consumer Description

I OWN A '01 TOY SEQUOIA WITH 60,000 MILES. DURING A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE APPT MY MECHANIC DISCOVERED A MASSIVE RUST PROBLEM THAT EXTENDED FROM THE FRONT TO THE REAR OF THE FRAME OF MY VEHICLE. HE HAS EXPLAINED THAT IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO TO REPAIR OR PREVENT THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS SO BAD THAT HE WAS ABLE TO FLICK OFF PIECES OF RUSTED FRAME USING ONLY HIS SMALL FINGER. I AM VERY WORRIED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER CARE, AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NOT CURRENT RECALLS ON THE SEQUOIA AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT THE PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP ME. *TR
