Consumer Description

MY 1997 TOYOTA TACOMA HAS SEVERE FRAME RUST. THE TECH AT HUDSON TOYOTA IN NEW JERSEY WOULDN'T EVEN TAKE FOR A TEST DRIVE. I NOTICED THE RUST FORMING IN 2010 BUT WAS UNAWARE OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PLACED BY TOYOTA UNTIL 2014, AFTER IT HAD EXPIRED. VERY FRUSTRATING. MILEAGE AS OF 9/11/15 IS 190K.
