 Description of the problemWe have a serious rust issue with our 2002 toyota tundra. Toyota replaced a frame but reattached all the already rusted pieces back onto the new frame. The break line has rusted through on several occasions. We have gone through a red light & stop sign. No was hurt, we were lucky but this truck is a death trap. We have hit the side of the garage trying to get it out of gear because everything is so rusted. We have contacted toyota & have been told it's a maintenance issue not a defect. This truck 100% a defect! It is a pile of metal sitting in our driveway because i refuse to put my family in it. It us irresponsible to drive this vehicles, so in our & the publics best interest it sits in our driveway.
