Consumer Description

I OWN A 2006 TACOMA TRD SPORT WITH 67000 MILES THAT I BOUGHT WITH 39000 MILES ON IT. I FANATICALY TAKE CARE OF THIS VEHICLE, GOING AS FAR AS CRAWLING UNDER IT TO WASH THE FRAME. WHEN DOING THIS I NOTICED THAT WHEREVER THERE IS A WELD OR FLAT SURFACE THAT THE PAINT IS MISSING AND THERE IS RUST. I HAVE READ IN MANY ARTICLES THAT THESE FRAMES AS WELL AS PREVIOUS GENERATION TACOMAS WERE MADE BY DANA AND THAT THERE WERE SEVERE SAFETY ISSUES DUE TO CORROSION IN EARLIER ONES. WHY DIDN'T TOYOTA CORRECT THESE ISSUE ON NEWER MODELS? I HAVE ALSO READ THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE UNTILL THERE IS PERFORATION. WHEN THE FRAME REACHES THE PERFORATION POINT IT WILL BE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. MY TRUCK ISN'T YET AT THAT STAGE SO I'M EXPECTING TOYOTA TO DO NOTHING FOR ME. *TR
