 Description of the problemI brought my truck in on july 13th 2015 to have the frame inspection done by hurlburt toyota in epping nh. They determined that my frame passed inspection and wanted me to bring it back to have crc done. I expressed my concern about the condition of my frame when i dropped it off and handed the service rep two pieces of metal that had basically fallen off in my hand. I was told not to worry and that they would look at it. I knew the frame was in bad shape and was disgusted when i was told that there was nothing wrong with it. I was then contacted a few weeks later 2 days before the recall expired and was encouraged to get my truck in to have crc done, but they could not provide me a loaner that i could tow with so i never went in. I was prepared to undercoat truck myself and while underneath my truck i found a hole in the boxed section of the drivers side(not a drainage hole) i contacted the dealer that inspected and they told me to contact toyota corp which i did and received a case # and after a lot of wasted time was told there was nothing that could be done. Something needs to be done about the way this is being handled. There is no way they can get crc in that boxed section which is where my problem is. It is frame rot not rust. Applying crc to that area will probably only make the rot worse. I was told that they do a more thorough inspection before undercoating but they had my truck for two days and printed on service slip that it passed. All of the frames are bad on these trucks. Im now stuck with a truck that i paid $10,000 two years ago and now feel its worth nothing. I would not sell in this condition and cant get any help from toyota! Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
