NHTSA Complaint #10893069 — 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA

TOOK TRUCK IN FOR FRAMES INSPECTION--DEALER SAYS I GET A NEW FRAME--NO COST. DEALER IS BACKING OUT OF THEIR WORD BECAUSE CAMPAIGN ENDED 3 MONTHS LATER--WAS TOLD CAMPAIGN WOULD BE GOOD FOR SEVERAL MORE YEAR. SERVICE ADVISER NEVER CHECKED ENDING DATE. EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLES ARE RUSTED AGAIN--FIXED SEVERAL TIMES--POOR PRODUCT. REAR DIFFERENTIAL COVER PLUG RUSTED BEYOND ABLE TO REMIOVE TO CHANGE FLUID--ANOTHER HUGE RUST ISSUE WITH TACOMA TRUCKS--NOT JUST THE FRAME. THE STEERING MECHANISM, TIMING BELT PULLEYS, WIRING SUPPORTS, ETC --ANYTHING THAT IS METAL IS CORRODED BECAUSE OF THE POOR QUALITY OF STEEL--JUST NOT THE FRAME. THE TIMING PULLEYS WERE SO CORRODED THAT THEY CUT MY BEL--LUCKY FOR ME IT STILL HAD 50% OF IT REMAINING AND DID NOT BLOW ENGINE--TRUCK HAD 63,000 MILES ON IT AT TIME. TOLD TO BRING TRUCK IN FOR REAR SPRINGS CAMPAIGN--I DID--THEY DON'T HAVE THE IN STALLION KITS--BEEN BACK ORDERED FOR MONTHS. CAMPAIGN SAYS THEY COULD RUPTURE THE GAS TANK AND END IN DISASTER--ANY YOU DON'T HAVE PARTS!!!
