Consumer Description

I JUST BOUGHT THIS 4 RUNNER USED AND I'VE ALL OF A SUDDEN HAD SUPER BAD RUSTING AROUND THE FRAME AND ALSO AROUND THE RADIATOR AND WHERE THE SKID PLATE IS ATTACHED WHERE MY MECHANIC SAYS HE'S WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD, I PERSONALLY FEEL LIKE THE INTEGRITY OF THE FRAMING SYSTEM AND SUSPENSION IS BEING FLAWED AND I BELIEVE THAT I AND THE MILLIONS MORE THAT ARE BEING EFFECTED BY THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF.
