The frame has rusted and holes are unsafe. I am worried about driving my vehicle. The safety of me and other drivers on the road I am traveling are at risk. I went to liberty Toyota in burlington, NJ and they refused to repair. The rust is unusual and there have been other years affected and frames replaced. My wife purchased this truck from liberty Toyota.
I I had a rusty frame recall which I took in on Feb. 2018 and had they supposedly repaired this by rustproofing. Since then all the new rustproofing applied for this fix has deteriorated. This truck has only been driven less than 10,000 miles since that time and is housed in a garage. This recall ends on July 28th of 2020 and my dealer says the will do nothing. Because no perforations are seen they will not help. I assumed that this was repaired correctly when it was done initially but have found that the job done was mainly cosmetic and the matter was not fixed. I am now asking for help to have this repair done properly.

Purchase new a 2009 Toyota Tacoma from Toyota of scranton-vehicle final payment for our truck was oct 2012. The truck has not missed an appointment at Toyota of scranton (they always maintained the vehicle). We took the truck for inspection at Toyota of scranton in September (yearly inspection) the truck failed inspection with regards to rust spots at frame of truck. Toyota did not pass the truck for inspection and told us to go to a local welding company and have it welded "superior welding CO. " I have been in touch with corporate and manufacture regarding this issue. They are working on case. I fear for other motorist who may have it welded by others or not welded and it be unsafe on the highway/roads. The truck was at dealership when told of issue.

Frame has excessive rust. Vehicle was bought new in summer 2008, less than 3 years later the seams of the frame had substantial rust. Frame is now covered in rust . When the Toyota dealer was contacted their reply was ~there is no recall for your vehicle regarding this matter. I am aware of many other model years of Tacoma being recalled for this problem. This is a safety hazard for the model year 2009 Tacomas and that model year should be included in the recall. Form requires a "when did this happen" date, a date of June 2011 was entered as the approximate date when the excessive rust was first noticed.
In addition to a rusted frame, my 2009 Tacoma has 1. A rusty air condition system with rusted components. 2. A rusted u joint for steering that was extremely difficult & expensive to replace. 3. A rusted power steering component with a hole in bottom. It can't be fixed until the frame is replaced. I can't safely drive the vehicle. 4. A rusted 4-wheel drive actuator � to be replaced. It doesn't g into 4 wheel drive. 5. Brake line rusted thru. Will these repairs be covered by Toyota as well during the frame replacement?.
