Model Year	2004
File date	05/12/12
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Frame rusting and rear differential rusting out. Frame is corroding from rust. Rear differential has several pin holes causing fluid to leak. These are both known problems with the gen 1 tundra's. Contacted toyota customer care and basically told me there isn't anything they can do since the frame recall campaign ended in 2015. I never received notification of the frame recall. I was told that there wasn't any recall fro the differential but that is a very common problem for tundra's used in ne usa whereby road salt is used in winter. The salt causes frame and differential rust because material used by toyota is of poor corrosion resistance quality. The consumer iis on their own. Toyota won't do anything even though it's their failure to build the vehicle fit for it's intended use.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
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.
