My Toyota was denied needing a frame replacement. I regret not taking it to a different dealership because it was very rusted! the corrosion compound was applied and now at 126,000 miles, you can literally rip handfuls of the frame off the truck. The frame is to the point of it not being safe to drive. I fear that it could definitely break in half while driving it. Has any other people reported rust coming through the spray on corrosion compound? it definitely did not solve the problem on my Toyota Tacoma.
I was driving down the road heard a loud snap. Truck skipped sideways like I hit a pothole. Found a broken driver side leaf spring. I reported it Toyota they said they didn't know how to fix it. So I went out and had 2 new springs put on for safety. I was then told they would pay me for the repair. Now because they don't kno the "remedy" to repair this. They won't do anything for me.
My leaf spring snapped while driving down the road. And they still wont do anything for it. Because they don't know how to fix there own problem. Also they won't stand behind the there fake remedy for a frame that is going to break apart. They did on the 2001-2004 because they knew the spray does nothing but make it worse. 04-08 your on your own.
This Toyota Tacoma slid downgrade on black ice and there was no airbag deployment despite an end-for-end, backwards, downhill flip initiated at 40 mph, that caused the full weight of the vehicle to impact on the front bumper, dislocating all front bumper attachments from the front crossmember of the vehicle's frame. This vehicle is at a salvage yard awaiting action by the insurance carrier, per thomas fitzsimmons, claim representative, at (304) 348-6209.
Air bags did not deploy in frontal crash.
