Description of the problem	I heard about the toyota recall for frame 'perforation' on 1995-2000 tacoma pickups. I have a 2001 and didn't think to check mine until a friend with the same year/make/model discovered his frame had the same issue. I checked my frame and it is rotted in the exact same place his was. I have opened a case with toyota (#200809250175) and am awaiting response. I am already being met with responses from toyota like "your truck is outside of the service bulletin" and "you are not covered". My truck is newer than the ones being covered and has the same issue. I don't understand why it would not be covered. Since this is an issue with the frame. I am afraid to drive the truck. As failure of the frame could result in serious injury or death to myself or my family.
