Description of the problem	Truck inspected by toyota for corrosion and treated with chemical as part of the recall notice. At this time i had no concerns with condition of the frame for safety concerns. My truck was treated 10/24/16 by toyota and during a routine exhaust fix mechanic showed me areas of concern on rear of the frame. The dealership that performed the treatment looked at the frame again and stated they diidnt want to touch or check the areas of concern a incase they made holes in the frame. I opened a case with toyota and indeed got a second opinion from another toyota dealership whom deemed my vehicle unsafe to drive due to frame corrosion in the areas that were treated , now this was only 3 months after toyota treated the frame. I was given a case manager at toyota for special circumstances as he quoted, and 2 days later was told nothing could be done. I also have a gas leak which has materialized around the rotted crossmember . Overall in 3 months i now have perorations and delamination of the rear frame and a junk truck.

What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
