NHTSA Complaint #11350760 — 2004 TOYOTA 4RUNNER

RE: NHSTA ACTION # DP18002. I OWN A 2004 TOYOTA 4RUNNER AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS SIMILAR TO THOSE NOTED IN THE REFERENCED CASE. UPON READING THE CASE DETAILS I INVESTIGATED MY 4RUNNER AND FOUND SIMILAR SERIOUS STRUCTURAL CORROSION PROBLEMS. I CONSULTED WITH A LOCAL VIRGINIA MOTOR VEHICLE STATE INSPECTOR AND LEARNED THAT THE CORROSION WAS SO SEVERE, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION AND BE LEGALLY, OR SAFELY, DRIVEN. I HAD THIS DAMAGE REPAIRED, AT SIGNIFICANT COST TO MYSELF, TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO USABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY CONDITION. I WRITE IN SUPPORT OF THE REFERENCE CASE. PLEASE KEEP ME INFORMED OF ANY PROGRESS IN THIS CASE. THE "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN DATE" IS THE DATE OF DISCOVERY.
