This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Truck won-??t pass inspection frame is rusted out like so many other 2006 Tundras. Some web searches showed this year was covered on recalls. In 2015 had a recall for corrosion on frame.. you mean RUST! However those don-??t show up as recalls.. WHY" How do all of us affected do another class action law suit" Truck has 147,239 miles way too young to be no good! Can-??t afford another car! Hey TOYOTA GIVE US KELLY BLUE BOOK AROUND 7000 or fix the frame! Any lawyers or news contact me! This family is screwed thanks to Toyota passing the buck
My Toyota Tundra has extensive rust damage due to rust and it-??s sway at has come completely disconnected from frame. Also there are at least other significant rust issues with the frame that make this truck unsafe.
The contact owns a 2006 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated while driving approximately 5 MPH and making a left turn, there was an abnormal banging sound coming from the vehicle. The contact stated that the front driver-??s side of the vehicle lowered unintendedly. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the front driver-??s side lower ball joint had separated from the knuckle. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the vehicle was previously serviced under the NHTSA Campaign Number: 07V013000 (Suspension). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The local dealer was not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 170,000.
I Was not notified That there was a recall for the frame rusting. My frame is rusted out and now I-??m told that the recall has expired. This is unacceptable and poses a threat to the lives of Me, my family and all Toyota drivers everywhere.
My vehicle was subject to a frame corrosion Limited Service Campaign. I brought the vehicle in for inspection and was advised there we 2 options: Frame replacement or Corrosion-Resistant Compound treatment. The dealership advised the vehicle did not qualify for frame replacement, and opted to apply CRC. The CRC application was performed June 11, 2014. I have documentation. I was recently advised by my mechanic that the gas tank straps are failing, and they cannot replace them due to corroded frame. The cross member requires total replacement due to extensive frame rotting. I believe that if Toyota had done the responsible thing as part of the recall, and replaced the frame instead of applying CRC, this issue would not occur today. I would respectfully like to request the NHTSA look into this matter.
Purchased used 2006 Toyota Tundra in May 2021. Upon bringing vehicle to Toyota dealer for inspection mechanic informed me that the frame had rust perforations and was unsafe to drive. The condition was not fixed due to exorbitant cost and I was not able to pass inspection.
Purchased this vehicle last year was told and confirmed the frame was sprayed..this year holes and rot...Toyota is NOT backing a limited time warranty/recall..I was told that if many complain this agency may be able to do something for the consumer /taxpayer....
My front stabilizer bar broke off from the frame the frame is rusting through in several places. I found this when my power steering started making noise and I was losing fluids took it to mechanic and a line on my rack and pinion had started leaking could not get just the line had to buy the whole rack and pinion when he was replacing it he found the stabilizer bar had broke loose from the frame the mechanic said I needed to get in touch with Toyota for a fix
9/28 Took vehicle into shop to get wheel alignment done, but was told frame was too rusty and to call Toyota because they had a frame recall. 10/15 gas tank strap & bolt rusted off, gas tank is hanging low. 11/19 bolts are coming through truckbed. 12/13 called Toyota about frame rust and the frame rust warranty being extended to 15 years.
Frame has rotted out before rear wheels and cross support for gas tank. Toyota did a recall on it in 2014 but the fix didn't last 7 years and now this vehicle could break in half or loose its gas tank creating a danger to driver and / or others. The vehicle is in great shape and low mileage and is nowhere near end of life otherwise. Toyota is offering no support at this time claiming they fixed the problem in 2014.
Heard some noise coming from the front left side of the truck. I parked it, took a look and noticed that the entire frame is completely rusted out with the front left wheel area with the most rust. The frame itself may break apart at any moment.
The truck had a frame recall and the frame was sprayed in accordance with the recall in 2014. The frame continued to rust badly and the welded bracket for the sway bar broke free of the frame while driving.
I have a 2006 Toyota Tundra. The frame has extensive rust along with holes and metal flaking off of the frame. We bought the truck in July 2020. It has been rendered unsafe to drive.
I have a 2006 Toyota Tundra that is in perfect condition mechanical and body no rust, recently found out about frame that has a hole in it on the right front it has been confirmed by dealership that it cannot be driven. In 2015 I took truck in for the recall for the frame obviously something was not done properly. After doing some research I'm finding out Toyota has been having problems with frames from about 2000-2009. The main issue here is if we did not notice this problem and someone is driving the vehicle and frame breaks and someone gets hurt who is responsible
In 2014 Toyota had a recall on the frame rusting issue. I had Toyota of Hanover Pa review the truck frame and they said it didn't meet the requirement for a frame replacement and they applied under coating. Now in 2021 the frame is starting to show signs of rust along the main frame beside the fuel tank when I had the vehicle in for inspection. I was a little confused sense it was undercoated but then reading more about the undercoating it may have made it worse by holding the moisture in and making it rust. I contacted Toyota to see if they would replace and or help me with the cost in replacing the frame since the truck is in excellent shape with 114k. And there response was NO the recall has expired and we can not do nothing. I priced a frame replacement and its over 11k. Also, reading a lot of other Toyota Tundra complaints about the undercoating and not installing a new frame around the same time period and everyone feeling the coating was going to last as long as the truck. I would appreciate any help on your end with this issue.

The chassis is rusted and the tires started leaning out because they are no longer supported fully. The vehicle is unsafe to drive now because of tire issues, and control. Insurance and or police will not look at because no accident occurred yet. I just notified Toyota who said the recall on models such as this had ended in 2015. The used car dealer my son just purchased from 5 months ago has denied any knowledge of the problem.
Passenger side front Ball joint failed when driving on interstate. Oil change and service was last done 2/24/21 mileage was 192943. I also sent all the information to Toyota.
