Tl the contact owns a 2000 Toyota Tundra. While the brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard, the vehicle failed to stop. The vehicle was placed into neutral in order to be stopped. The contact looked underneath the vehicle and noticed that the frame was rusted. The contact also mentioned that the shifter was not functioning properly. The contact mentioned that the gear selector would not move to the desired gear. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the vehicle was not safe to drive due to the rust, and that the brake line and shifter cable needed to be replaced. Graham Toyota (1515 w 4th st, mansfield, OH 44906, (419) 529-1800) was called and stated that the frame was previously repaired per an unknown recall. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing or repairs. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was 117,000.

This vehicle had a recall because of the excessive rusting of the frame. I brought my truck in March of 2013 and was told the frame didn't need to be replaced but only needed to be "under coated" which they did. Shortly thereafter this "undercoating" started peeling off in large sheets. I brought the truck back to have it inspected and the local dealership confirmed that there was perforation of the frame. There is a hole in the frame approx. 2 inches in diameter. Toyota called me back and I was told they had done what was required for the recall and they wouldn't be doing anything else. Obviously this was a big enough concern that a recall was declared and it appears that Toyota has taken the position that as long as they make a token effort it doesn't matter if they correct the problem. I pull a boat with this truck and am now concerned that if the frame fails it could cause a serious accident.
Previous complaint not correct. Took vehicle to Toyota newburgh NY for safety recall replace frame was told at time had to do power steering as leaking and rust and entire cost I had to pay though compain states they are responsible or they wouldnt pass inspection, I showed them. No other choice but to do & hope to recoupe later, yeah right. Truck went in complete frame was done remarkable fast, obvious why, as I drove home the truck had not been put back on frame correct that was clear to the eye but driving it the challange to remain on road safe. The dealer nys certified insp. Site also passed this vehicle. The truck has so many more safety issues after completion its a joke thanks NHTSA. Not to mention the malfunction of many components that worked prior, called dealer and complained, they also informed me as replace being done that the exhaust hanging by thread due to rust brackets etc the cost to repair $6000. 00 if I bring it back they will surely violate me again, I cant afford $/aggrav. Nhtsa has done nothing for me but they continue to compain on the utmost importance we as consumers are these trucks need be taken off the road. Toyota corp. N dealer laughed when I stated calling NHTSA go ahead they wont do anything, filled w Toyota customer hotline anyway knowing they are in bed with NHTSA. My ? who & where are these fines billlions of $ going, surely not to the owners of vehicles. Mr. Strickland I dare u to do your taxpaying job & get me n others results take these and any other vehicles off the road before my or hey maybe your family is involved in fatality. Are roads are not safe, this agency is failing everyone that travles over the road. Any attorney willing take private case I got documents n some odellpierce@gmail. Com NHTSA stinks big in this who do u represent who ru accountble to I want answers mr. Strickland contact info nowhere why.
I have a 2000 Toyota Tundra and it has a problem that when the car gets hot the engine will stall out and die without warning. It creates no omd ii errors and the check engine light never appears. The ecm fuse blows on occasion but replacing it does not lead to a running vehicle. It fails to start until the engine compartment cools down. There is fire from the spark plugs and there is fuel pressure in the fuel rail. We have replaced all the relays and fuses in the ecm and efi circuits and all fingers are now pointing to the ecm controller itself. We just changed out the fuel pump and are looking at replacement of all the ignition coils (8) and all the fuel injectors (8). But since all of these components seam to be working that would make little since. The recent recall for the ecm on the matrix & corolla indicate that there may have been problems with the manufacture of ecm units for a much longer period of time since my Tundra is exhibiting the same problem. This problem has been getting worse for over 5 years now and the Toyota dealers and other Toyota specialty shops cannot find the problem since there are no engine codes and the fact that it will start and run fine after it cools down. I have been waiting for it to die and not start at all to hope to find the problem.
I have a 2000 Toyota Tundra which has had numerous problems with the front and rear brakes. The front brakes were "repaired" within the first 4,000 miles of driving but the front disc rotors continue to warp within 10-15,000 miles of additional "repairs". The rear brakes are frequently bathed in oil from leaking rear-ed seals caused, I'm told, by plugged rear-end vents. The vent has been cleaned or replaced and the rear seals replaced five times in the history of the car (now 109,000 miles). The bias between the brakes is extremely favoring the front brakes and the abs has not worked for some time. Panic braking, especially in rain-soaked or snow-covered surfaces entirely is entirely insufficient and dangerous. I have been very disappointed by Toyota's responsiveness to these problems and seeming inability to fix these problems. I've read numerous similar complaints from other Tundra owners. This is a pervasive, persistent and life-threatening design flaw that is, apparently, unfixable.
Transmission feels like it binds after the initial stop. The truck will jerk forward as if it was hit from behind. Dimssii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis ---731059.
