Description of the problem | Toyota rust thru frame recall...... I had the rear spare tire carriage assy and cross member. Replaced. They forgot my free undercoating until i called them. And complained . But my complaint is they did not inspect the exanded front frame until the recall waranty had expired... Then they took pictures and told me to "beg my case" to corporate. To which they denied; as the time limit had expired. My clam is :if the dealership had notified me ,in time, they would have found the 4 inch long by 1/4 inch wide rust thru n my frame , definaely in the recall area. It took the dealer 1 year to warranty undercoat the frame of the recalled areas as the dealership had[ a] moved to a new location ... And [b] they were not trained in the application . My settlement desired iis for toyota to replace my frame. |
