Consumer Description

MY 2003 TOYOTA SEQUOIA HAS RUST HOLES THROUGH MY FRAME TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE TO DRIVE IT AS IT'S MY ONLY VEHICLE AND I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN THAT I HAVE TO TAKE WITH ME. TOYOTA USA SAID THEY PERFORMED A TREATMENT TO THE GRAM IN 2012 AND THAT THEIR IS NOTHING FURTHER THEY WILL DO TO RESOLVE THIS BLATANT SAFETY ISSUE. THE FACT SO MANY SEQUOIA OWNERS ARE REPORTING THIS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE BY TOYOTA IS APPALLING. I HAVE SUBMITTED PICTURES OF AN AREA NEAR THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WHEEL. THE SWAY BAR IS BARLEY BEING HELD ON DUE TO THE RUST.
