Consumer Description

CAME TO STOP LIGHT ENGAGED CLUTCH WENT THROUGH FIREWALL LEAVING ME UNABLE TO DRIVE. MY MECHANIC WELDED IT . JUST RECENTLY FOUND THAT FRONT END SUPPORT UNDER RADIATOR IS RUSTED ALONG WITH MOTOR MOUNTS. I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK SINCE 1997 NEW, LEASED IT FOR 3 YEARS THEN BOUGHT IT OUT RIGHT. WHILE UNDER LEASE AGREEMENT IT WAS SERVICED BY DEALER. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY "RECALLS WHAT SO EVER " ON THIS TRUCK. THERE ARE NOW 169000 MILES ON THIS TRUCK. THE MOTOR IS STILL IN GOOD SHAPE AND WAS LOOKING FOR SEVERAL MORE YEARS DRIVING.... IS THERE ANYTHING TOYOTA IS LIABLE FOR? I KNOW THERE WERE SIMILAR PROBLEMS IN THE VEHICLES, BUT I NEVER GOT ANY NOTICE FOR ANY RECALLS!!! A FRIEND OF MINE HAS A SIMILAR TRUCK 1998 THAT HAS OVER 2500000 MILESNOW. WE WERE ALWAYS WAITING TO SEE IF WE WERE EVER GOING TO GETA RECALL ON OUR TRUCKS.... *TR
