I have a 2004 Toyota Tundra SR5 that was part of the frame rust replacement campaign. It was brought into Bob Rohrman Toyota in Lafayette, IN and determined that it did not meet the criterion for replacement. I now have a sway bar bracket that rusted off of the frame. No mechanics or body shops will touch it and I was told there is nothing to even weld a new bracket to and the engine mounts are just a matter of time before rotting away. The truck only has 118k miles and zero body rust. I have lost value in this vehicle because I cannot sell it and the dealership and Toyota both refuse to remedy the situation.

The frame has a large rust area and has a large hole near the passenger side wheel well. The body of the truck is in great shape. Truck is washed very regularly including special attention to the under carriage.

My truck was bought with no open recalls. I was recently informed my a mechanic while getting my brakes replaced, that the frame of the truck was rusted and cracked. He said the truck could literally break apart while driving. This truck is in great condition has zero rust on the body, has always been garage kept. The previous owner also kept it in the garage. It's 19 years old and only has 107,000 miles on it. The recall from Toyota for this problem was addressed per the records however the exact frame malfunction has occurred. Toyota says there is nothing they can do because the recall work was done. Even if the recall work wasn't done right or didn't fix the problem. My fear is there are other people in my position who have no choice but the drove the vehicle they already deemed unsafe. And the FIX Toyota came up with did not insure that this problem would not

I have severe frame rot, holes forming in the frame!

The frame on my newly purchased 2004 Toyota Tundra is rotted through. The consumer protections Toyota claims to have taken to correct this, in this instance, the application of water seal to the frame in 2014 has trapped moisture and caused extensive corrosion rendering the vehicle unsafe. I have visited multiple Toyota locations received the same message. Toyota claims no responsibility for this course of events leaving consumers in my position with no recourse and with an unsafe vehicle we cannot use and in my case have spent almost eleven thousand dollars on. Where is the responsibility to consumer safety?

My Tundra has a rotting frame due to rust corrosion. It was sprayed in 2014 but has since rusted to the point where it's safety is questionable. Frame needs to be replaced by Toyota.

TOYOTA TUNDRA 2004first. I'M the 2nd owner of this truck and my deceased father was the This truck has been treated like a baby, garage kept, never late on oil changes etc. Everything is in superior?condition except for the frame is now completely rusted out. The rusted rear frame has affected the rear brake lines and the proportioning valve along with the passenger side ball joint and cv axle were damaged. Tie rods and sway bar stabilizers were all worn and broken as well. After my father died of cancer there was a crc campaign for undercoat spray which my mom supposedly had it done April 2014. That did nothing besides cover up the existing rust and increase the break down of the frame. It felt like my breaks were going out so took it to the closest mechanic for him say not only the brakes but my frame is completely rotten and rusted out.. he also stated he saw no signs of it being sprayed and Voss toyota in beavercreek ohio wasn't able to provide verification that it was indeed done because there records are gone after 4 years. It was noted it was done but who knows.

Frame Rust issue. I was told by a toyota dealer that a recall was issued for frame rust(safety issue) was issued back in 2015. This was the first time i ever heard of the recall. IN past years--shown by my actions--when i received a recall letter in mail---i set up a appointment and got it done. I have been told my truck is unsafe to drive. My vehicle has been inspected by 2 different dealers. Toyota representive told me they would contact me--and that has not happened.

I had the dealer take my truck in for the frame recall. I asked for them to replace the frame because I was not comfortable with how they were handling it. Per the service record they filled in perforations and -??undercoated. I did not believe that filling in existing perforations was the safest way to handle this. After brining the truck to a shop to check the steering we were told that they wouldn-??t even put it up on a lift. The steering issue was that the rack and pinion steering was literally falling out due to the rusted frame. We drove this vehicle home and parked it. About a week later the spare tire fell out right onto our driveway. Needless to say, I am certain there are many more Toyota trucks out there ready to fall apart on the road. We contacted Toyota corporate several times to try to rectify this mishandling of our recall. We called and sent certified letters. We asked to share the cost of a new frame and they said no. We then had the truck towed to a shop who could do the work. They ordered a frame from Toyota only to be contacted 2 months later saying that the frame was discontinued and they wouldn-??t be sending it after all (we were willing to pay fir the frame and install because we had a useless and UNSAFE vehicle. We finally found a shop over an hour away who could rebuild/fabricate the frame and replace the fallen out steering etc. we had that truck towed about 60 miles away to have this work completed. This mishandling of the recall by Toyota and their lack of customer care cost me a whopping $17,000! Again, unsafe Tundras out there for sure. Please advise-??this is the 2nd time I-??ve filled out this form and never heard anything. Thank you in advance.

I went in to Toyota garage to have my frame checked, and at one time the lift I received a letter in regards to this. The truck, it went up on the lift they verified it was bad and then told me it has expired and I still have an air bag relacement still open. How can they expire the frame when iwould think this is more dangerous if I got in an accident than a air bag which has never expired.

Frame rust rot

- White Plains, NY, USA

I had recently purchased a 2004 Tundra with knowing about the recall for frame rust. I believed Toyota had completed the recall and fixed the problem. Not long after owning the vehicle, I noticed a spot of rust bubbling through the anti corrosion coating. After further inspection, the frame is completely corroded through and cracked. This vehicle was meant to use for travel with my family in it and now it's not safe to drive at all.
