Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAD NEW FRONT SHOCKS PUT ON AS FRONT SHOCKS WERE RUSTED AND SEIZED, AFTER INSPECTION OF VEHICLE, TECHNICIAN TOLD US FRAME OF THE CAR WAS SEVERELY RUSTED AND HAD HOLES IN IT. HE FELT IT WAS VERY UNSAFE AS SPARE TIRE COULD FALL OFF AND SUV MAY NOT TAKE IMPACT FROM A CRASH CORRECTLY. WE PHONED TOYOTA DIRECTLY AND WE ASKED FOR A TECHNICIAN TO COME OVER TO OUR DEALER TO VIEW THE SUV. WE WERE TOLD THEY COULD NOT DO THAT, AND WE HAD TO GO TO DEALER AND HAVE DEALER LOOK AT IT. DEALER LOOKED AT IT AND TOOK PICTURES AND ADVISED US THAT IS IN POOR CONDITION. THEY ARE SENDING THAT INFORMATION OVER TO TOYOTA. TOYOTA SHOULD TAKE THIS MUCH MORE SERIOUSLY AS THEY HAVE HAD RECALLS ON OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE AT ALL IN MY CAR AND I BOUGHT THIS NEW AND PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS VEHICLE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AS THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
