Description of the problem | The rear frame and cross members are so rusty that it is causing the bed to rust from the frame up. Everywhere the bed attaches to the frame it has rusted through. Eventually the rust will be so bad that the rust around the bolt holes will no longer keep the bed attached to the frame . This is definitely a safety issue and toyota tells me that no recall has been issued for the beds of the rusty trucks. *kb |
