NHTSA Complaint #11098509 — 2006 TOYOTA 4RUNNER

AFTER ONLY A COUPLE OF YEARS STARTED RUSTING PRETTY BADLY ON FRAME, CROSSMEMBERS AND FRONT AND REAR DIFFERENTIALS. ALSO STABILIZERS SKID PLATES AND BASICALLY ANYTHING UNDER THE TRUCK. THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY SURFACE RUST UNTIL PARTS WERE CRACKING AND STABILIZERS FELL OFF TRUCK. REAR END WAS READY TO DROP OFF TRUCK! TRUCK ONLY HAS 81,000 MILES AND LOOKS BRAND NEW. WANTED TO KEEP ANOTHER 10 YEARS! MY WIFE AND KID USED THIS AND COULD HAVE CRASHED THEM BOTH! FRAME RUSTED FROM INSIDE OUT AND DEALER DEEMED UNDRIVEABLE THIS WEEK! TRUCK VALUED AT $13-15,000! DEALER WONT WARRANTY AND NOT UNDER TACOMA AND SEQUOIA RECALLS! SAME FRAME ISSUES TOYOTA! RECALL THE 4 RUNNER TOYOTA! MAJOR DANGER OF FRAME LOOKING OK FROM OUTSIDE BUT CRUMBLING AND FALLING APART WHILE DRIVING. HAVE BEEN A MECHANIC AND BODY PERSON ALL MY LIFE AND NEVER SEEN RUSTING AND CRUMBLING OF A FRAME IN CHUNKS FALLING OFF! WAKE UP TOYOTA, RECALL THE 4RUNNER OR FIX MY FRAME! CANNOT DRIVE TRUCK!
