Description of the problem	On 9/27/13 when my 2004 tundra was being checked out for a recall for severe frame rust the ri toyota dealer brought to my attention the rear differential was rotted through and leaking oil and said that this rust is not covered by recall. The whole axle has to be replaced. My question to you is, shouldn't toyota be responsible for all the sub-standard steel? Shouldn't this be under a safety recall for oil leakage? As far as i know the oil leak cannot be fixed w/o complete axle housing replacement and this is a problem that effects a huge # of tundras.
