Consumer Description

THE 2008 TOYOTA SEQUOIA ONLY HAS 35,300 MILES ON IT AND WHILE IT WAS IN FOR OIL CHANGED AND ON THE RACK, THE MECHANIC NOTICED A SEVERE RUSTING ISSUE ON THE FRAME. THE VEHICLE HAS SEVERE RUST ON THE FRAME IN PARTICULAR THE REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY, INCLUDING THE WELDS THAT HOLD THE FRAME TOGETHER. I AM VERY CONCERNED WITH THE ISSUE OF THE ROADS AND STRESS OF POTHOLES THAT THE FRAME AND WELDS COULD BECOME SEVERELY DAMAGED AND POSSIBLY BREAK OFF ON THE ROAD IN PARTICULAR AT HIGH SPEEDS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN RUSTING THIS BAD SINCE THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRIES USE OF RECYCLED METALS. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE OF THE USE OF THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY FAMILY.
