2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA Structurebody Problems

Toyota frame rusting recall is cut off at 2010. I have a 2013 that the bed is rusting out because of the plastic Toyota branded beds the factory installed when it was new. The frame and rear axle also show rusting. I am paying out if pocket to stay safe.

I HAVE NOTICED PREVIOUS RECALLS FROM OLDER MODEL TOYOTA TRUCKS DUE RUST OCCURRING TO FRAMES AND BEDS. CURRENTLY, THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY 2013 TUNDRA SPECIFIC TO THIS. HOWEVER, IT SEEMS LIKE THE FRAME RUST ISSUES CONTINUED PAST THE EARLIER RECALL. MY TRUCK IS 2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA WITH APPROX 35,000 MILES. THERE IS RUST ON THE FRAME AND BUBBLING THROUGH MY TRUCK BED LINER. FROM FORBES I NOTICED THERE WAS A $3.4 BILLION RECALL FOR TOYOTA TRUCKS AND SUVS FROM 2005-2010. FROM FURTHER RESEARCH ON VARIOUS FORUMS, I NOTICED OTHERS HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. I SPOKE TO TOYOTA, THEY STATED THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY YEAR TRUCK. I WILL SHARE SOME PHOTOS FROM RUST BUBBLING THROUGH THE TRUCK BED. IF YOU WOULD LIKE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS I WOULD BE HAPPY TO SHARE. I REALLY AM UNSURE THE NEXT COARSE OF ACTION. I HAVE NEVER SUBMITTED ANYTHING TO NHTSA BEFORE. I...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE AND CAUSED THE SPARE TIRE TO STRIKE THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE AND ROLL AWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANDERSON TOYOTA (LOCATED AT 6510 SHOWPLACE AVE, LAKE HAVASU CITY, AZ 86404, (928) 764-2886) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,035.

ON 08/22/14, I HAD BEEN TO THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY OIL CHANGED. I ASKED THEM TO LOOK AT THE BRAKES BECAUSE THERE WAS A TERRIBLE VIBRATION AND THE BRAKES HAVE NOT STOPPED WELL SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. THEY SAID THE TRUCK NEEDED NEW BRAKES, ROTORS AND PADS ALL THE WAY AROUND. I WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE IT BACK ON 08/29/14. ON 08/28/14 WHILE DRIVING ON A CLEAR ROAD WITH NO RAIN OR CLOUDS I WENT TO STOP AND I PUSHED THE BRAKES TO THE FLOOR WITH BOTH FEET AND THE TRUCK DID NOT STOP AND I HIT ANOTHER CAR. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA AND THEY FINALLY ORDERED AN INSPECTOR TO GET THE BLACK BOX FROM MY TRUCK. HE HAS NOT CALLED TO SCHEDULE THIS AND IT IS 3 WEEKS LATER. I HAVE LEFT MESSAGE AFTER MESSAGE. I BELIEVE THE BRAKES ARE FAULTY WITH...

THE BODY OF THE TRUCK IS DESIGNED TO ALLOW RODENTS/MICE INTO THE CAB WHERE THEY CAN CHEW THE WIRING WHICH WILL LEAD TO A VARIETY OF PROBLEMS. THE TRUCK CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 3300 MILES ON IT. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER THEY SAID YEAH ALL THESE TRUCKS HAVE THIS, WHAT HAS BEEN DAMAGED SO WE CAN GET IT IN FOR REPAIR. I ASKED IF IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY SAID NO. COATING THE WIRING WITH A SOY (MOUSE FOOD) BASED PRODUCT IS INSANITY UNLESS YOU'RE TRYING TO INCREASE YOUR REPAIR BUSINESS. THERE ARE 16 COMPUTERS IN THIS TRUCK THAT CONTROL EVERYTHING. WHEN THE WIRING IS DAMAGED BECAUSE OF THIS DESIGN FLAW ALL SORTS OF MALFUNCTIONS WILL OCCUR THAT INCLUDE STEERING, ENGINE QUITTING, BRAKES FAILING, THROTTLE, LIGHTS, ETC. THE DEALER IS VERY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND SPECIALIZES IN FIXING IT TO THE TUNE OF ABOUT $200 SO FAR....

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW FROM JOE PECHELES TOYOTA IN WASHINGTON, NC. I DISCOVERED DENTS IN THE ROOF 5 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE. THE ROOF SOMETIMES VIBRATES AND MAKES NOISE WHEN DRIVEN. YOU CAN PLACE YOUR HAND ALMOST ANYWHERE ON THE ROOF AND IT CAVITATES. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER CARE. I WAS TOLD IN AN EMAIL BY THEIR CUSTOMER CARE DEPARTMENT SUPERVISOR [XXX] THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD A MEETING WITH DISTRICT SERVICE MANAGER [XXX] AND JOE PECHELES GENERAL MANAGER [XXX] ON FEB. 17, 2014. I WAS SHOWN A DIAGRAM OF THE ROOF AND THE SUPPORT BRACES. THE INTERIOR LINER WAS REMOVED AND [XXX] LOOKED AT THE SUPPORT BRACES AND TOLD ME THE ROOF MET MANUFACTURING SPECIFICATIONS AND THAT THEY COULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE DENTS AND THE CAVITATING. HE SUGGESTED THAT MAYBE SOMETHING HEAVY WAS PLACED ON THE ROOF TO CAUSE THE...
