Structure problem #1

From the Toyota invoice: "customer states the back of the center console facing the rear seats gets very, very hot. . . Almost burning fingers. " and this statement is correct. The folks at clearwater, Toyota say there is nothing mechanically incorrect with my automobile, but I am telling them, clearly there is something incorrect with my vehicle. Thus my reason for this complaint.

Body problem #2

Excessive underbody rusting. I have a tundra whose underbody was changed upon recall by Toyota. Car is garaged or left in driveway. Every mechanic comments on excessive rusting including prestige Toyota but they maintain it's satisfactory. I had to change the thing holding the tire because it rusted through creating the danger the spare could break loose. Aaa would not change a spare tire because of rusting through. Toyota thinks the rust is ok. I don't and worry about safety. I cannot remember exactly when this happened. I can't accurately recall mileage when I noticed this.
