Consumer Description

I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS TRUCK FOR 2 MONTHS. THE FRAME IS ROTTEN SO BAD THAT THE METAL CO NETTED TO THE REAL TRAILING ARM HAS FALLEN OFF THE FRAME... THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS A 17 YEAR OLD CAR BUT THERE IS NO WAY THE FRAME SHOULD BE ROTTEN THIS BADLY. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE TOYOTA'S OF THESE YEARS AND TOYOTA HAD A RECALL ON TACOMA BUT NOT 4RUNNERS...... I HAVE A HONDA THAT IS 5YEARS OLDER AND DOESN'T HAVE ANY FRAME FOR LIKE THIS.... TOYOTA CAN DO A RECALL ON TACOMA AND TUNDRA THEN THEY CAN FIX THE 4RUNNERS TOO!!!!!!
