Consumer Description

MY 2002 SEQUOIA HAS BEEN MAINTAINED BY THE BOOK YET THE RUST OF THE FRAME AND THE DIFFERENTIAL HAVE LEFT THIS VEHICLE AS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I AM TOLD THAT THE LEAK OF TRANSMISSION FLUID IS BECAUSE THE DIFFERENTIAL IS ALMOST RUSTED THROUGH. I KNOW TOYOTA HAS HAD RUST ISSUES AND MY PREVIOUS TOYOTA LANDCRUISER HAD RUST ISSUES AS WELL. NOW THAT IT HAS HAPPENED A SECOND TIME I DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE. PLEASE UPDATE ME. *TR
