Consumer Description

FRAME RUST SO BAD TRUCK WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. THIS CONDITION FOUND ON ANNUAL STATE INSPECTION. FROM PICS MECHANIC TOOK, I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE VEHICLE. SOME ATTACHMENT BRACKETS/BARS NOT EVEN CONNECTED AND RUSTED COMPLETELY IN HALF. I CALLED TOYOTA CORPORATE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE NOR ANY TYPE OF BUY BACK PROGRAM FOR IT. SAD THAT THIS TRUCK WAS NOT REPAIRED AS THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2000-2003 TUNDRAS AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT REPAIR DUE TO AGE. SEEMS THIS REPAIR WORK SHOULD BE AVAILABLE TO ANY CONSUMER WHO OWNS THE VEHICLE IF THE RECALL WORK HAS NEVER BEEN PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE? I AM JUST SECOND OWNER OF VEHICLE AND HAVE ONLY OWNED THE VEHICLE JUST OVER A YEAR. ALTHOUGH HIGH MILEAGE, THIS TRUCK RUNS AND LOOKS GREAT.
