| Description of the problem | Extensive rust is located on the frame of the truck. This 2004 toyota tundra was built on the toyota tacoma frames before toyota made the larger tundra and frames. It's therefore likely that the same extensive rust recall for the previous years tacoma's should extend to the tundra's that were once built on these frames. Since the delivery date on this truck is december 31, 2003, it is believed that this vehicle should also be recalled under the same premise. The pictures from the recalled tacoma frames look very, very similar and there should be a check on whether or not this 2004 toyota tundra frame has the same exact problem. |
