Consumer Description

FRAME RUSTED THROUGH. TOOK IT TO DEALER IN 2010 FOR INSPECTION. DEALER REPORTED NO ISSUES. TOOK IT TO DEALER IN 2017. DEALER WOULD NOT PUT IT ON THE LIFT FOR FEAR THAT IT WOULD BREAK IN HALF. TOYOTA ASSUMING NO RESPONSIBILITY INSPIRE OF THE FACT OF THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR SAME. THEY INDICATED IT WAS PAST THE SETTLEMENT DATE. I DID BRING IN IN WITHIN THE DEADLINE IN 2010 AND THEY CLAIMED NO PROBLEM. 7YEARS LATER THE TRUCK HAS BEEN RENDERED USELESS. I SHOULD MENTION THAT THE AFTER MARKET TRAILER HITCH HAS NOT RUSTED THROUGH AND IS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. HMMM? I THINK TOYOTA IS NOT BEING HONEST WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS
