Structure Problems of Toyota 4Runner - part 2

I bought a certified used car from a Toyota dealer back in Sep. 2002 for $24,000. They didn't give me a master key (master key is one of the inspection point check)and they didn't give me a car jack. They told me that this car has never been in an accident before. The check engine light came on July 10 2003 I looked at engine and underneath the car. I noticed the poor workmanship on front and rear bumper,some mudd guards are missing and the VIN lables looks like it was peeled off before and the ones on the doors and hood doesn't look authentic.

On 03'04/02 I was sitting at the traffic light witin on the light to change to green. The light changed to green , then I proceeded into the intersection where I was t-boned on the driver sided. At this time I hear a loud bang then the lower area by the brakes caved in on my left leg, the the doors locked ,then my car alarm sounds off. During this time I can see smoke to my leftt in the door area. So immdiately I try to get out of the vehicle but I had to unlock doors first. I recall trying to get out of the seat but iwas restraint by the seat belt during this time from the impact my vehicle is still moving. I reached over to remove my seat belt while also raising myself out of the seat when the driver air bag deployed. My arm to the full force of the pressure of the air bag deploying. I managed to get between the front seat to cross over to the passenger side to get out of the vehicle when the air bag started to deployed I reached for my purse on front floor of the passenger side and continue to get to the back seat of 4 runner. I tried to get out on the rear driver side door but it would not open then I went to the passenger rear door and got out but when I stood up out of the vehicle my left leg collaspe and I found my self in the middle of intersection unprotective. I laid in the intersection for about 5-7 minutes before other citizen camed on the scene. You could not began to image yourself trapped in this utility vehicle like a caged mouse with no way out. All hear is the bang, electric doors locking, alarm sounding off, and smoke to the left of you and no visible person to help you get out of this cage. Nlm.
