Consumer Description

I have frame rust issues on my 2006 Toyota 4Runner. I first heard about the rust issue in 2018, I contacted Toyota and they send me to Huntington Toyota in New York to get it check. They said it's fine. A couple of weeks ago the frame cracked from rust. I've contact Toyota again and they denied the repair. It is vary obvious the frame issue was a flaw from the beginning. I like to see them replace the frame.
