Description of the problem	In 2007 i noticed the frame on my 2001 toyota tacoma double cab limited four wheel drive was rusting badly. I notified the gault toyota dealership where i buy all my vehicles about the problem and they stated they would monitor the rusting issue. On 01/02/2008 i had my vehicle in for an oil change and they advised my the frame of my truck was rusted through. They are now telling me that there was a buy back program for the rusted framed vehicles from 1990's to the year 2000. I have done some research and had found a number of trucks like mine year 2001 and newer are also rushing out. I was told by gault toyota the toyota co. Is looking at each individual case and they are more likely are going to replace the frame and it probably would not be bought back like the older models were. I feel this frame swap could cause me more problems and more money loss. I do not feel it is fair that toyota is not giving the owners of the newer vehicles the option to have the vehicles bought back. This is a problem that needs to be addressed!
