2011 TOYOTA TACOMA Structurebody Problems

The underside of my 2011 Toyota Tacoma is experiencing tremendous rust. Dealer said since there was not perforation, nothing to be done. Brackets holding wiring, body panels and now gas tank have rusted and failed. The gas tank strap is a major concern. It is available for inspection. The gas tank is held up now by one unrusted strap and rubber bungee cords I applied. Dealer or independence service center has not seen it. Nearest dealer is a ferry ride away, I live on an island. No inspection by manufacturer etc. No warning lights or messages.

Toyota Tacoma was sprayed in 2020 for frame rust. Rust has began again on the frame. Also the suspension and behind the two rear wheels rust is rampant. Lots and lots of rust but no new holes since was sprayed. Pictures attached of the 2011 Toyota Tacoma with 68,000 miles.

This VIN number was totaled due to a bent frame after being rear ended on June 10th. I fear my insurance company (USAA) will attempt to commit fraud by not reporting the title as salvage.

I HAVE BEEN READING WHERE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY TOYOTA OWNERS. ALSO, THE WHITE PAINT ON MY CAR IS STARTING TO FLAKE OFF. THE TRUCK ISN'T EVEN 10 YEARS OLD AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED. YET AGAIN, THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS AFFECTED BY THIS. APPARENTLY THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF WHITE PAINT THAT TOYOTA KNOWS TO BE AN ISSUE ON CERTAIN YEAR MODELS, BUT THEY HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL. HAVING A PAINT JOB IS AN EXPENSE THAT MOST CAN NOT AFFORD! I COULD SEE IF IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS CAUSED FROM AN ACCIDENT OR THE OWNERS FAULT, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. MINE IS STARTING TO PEEL AND FLAKE ON MY...
