Consumer Description

I DISCOVERED THAT MY 2000 TOYOTA 4RUNNER HAS SEVER INTERIOR FRAME ROT IN FRONT OF THE REAR TRAILING ARM CONNECTION POINTS, MORE SO ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE. THIS WILL BECOME VERY UNSAFE AFTER A WHILE IF NOTHING IS DONE TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. I REMEMBER TOYOTA RECALLING TACOMAS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. WHY WILL THEY NOT UPHOLD TOYOTA QUALITY AND SAFETY AND RECALL A VEHICLE THAT IS BUILT ON BASICALLY THE SAME FRAME AS THE TACOMA? THE REST OF THE BODY IS PERFECT. THAT IN ITSELF PROVES A DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION FLAW OF THE FRAME. *TR
