1 Frame Rust problem

Failure Date: 03/19/2021

Rust to the frame of the car not consummate with the age of the vehicle, rust to the straps that secure the fuel tank. Points that affix the brake lines to the vehicle frame have rusted to the point they're no longer affixed to the frame. The rate at which rust gestates on this vehicle (and I am much more attentive than the typical consumer) is unsafe and will continue to create unsafe conditions as these vehicles rapidly deteriorate. The rust prevention methods used by the factory are entirely inadequate.

2 Frame Rust problem

Failure Date: 05/10/2018

Lower control arms rusted. Need replaced couldn't adjust them for alignment. Frame rusting front and rear diff rusting. Stock skid plate replaced rusted through completely. I thoroughly wash salt off my vehicle, yet it still has rusted just like the original frame recall Toyota hasn't gotten it right. Need another recall. I've lived with mine, but others have it much worse.
