Consumer Description

THE FRAME OF MY TRUCK IS TOTALLY RUSTED THROUGH. IT HAS A CRACK AND IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I RECENTLY TRIED TO ROTATE MY TIRES AND THE MECHANIC FOUND A GREAT DEAL OF RUST AND DEBRIS IN THE WHEEL HUBS. HE BROKE LUGNUTS AND STUDS TRYING TO REMOVE THE REAR TIRES. HE REFUSED TO TOUCH THE FRONT TIRES. TOYOTA WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE TRUCK WAS UNDER COATED IN 2012 AS PER RECALL. TOYOTA WILL NOT TAKE THE TRUCK IN AS A TRADE BECAUSE OF THE RUST. CURRENTLY THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE DRIVE AND EVEN IF I COULD DRIVE IT I AM AFRAID TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I GOT A FLAT AND HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THE TRUCK HAS ONLY 56,000 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR.
