Consumer Description

RECENTLY MY 2003 SEQUOIA STARTED TO SHAKE ON THE LEFT FRONT TIRE, SO I HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THE MECHANIC STATED THEY COULD NOT REPAIR MY CAR BECAUSE THE PROBLEM THAT I WAS HAVING WAS NOT DUE TO THE STRUTS OR SHOCKS, BUT THAT THE FRAME WAS SO RUSTED AND THAT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. ADVISED ME NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR, BUT THAT I WOULD EITHER HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A WELDING SHOP FOR REPAIR, OR LOOK FOR ANOTHER CAR. THEY CONCLUDED THAT THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ANY LONGER. THE FRAME IS SO RUSTED, THAT I WOULD BE AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I SPOKE WITH A WELDING SHOP AND HE ADVISED ME TO CONTACT TOYOTA.
