 Description of the problemI recently had to have some body work done on my 2006 toyota tundra. The body shop owner said that he saw the frame was extremely rusty and in his opinion was a safety hazard. He said he remembered that toyota had a recall for rusty frames previously but he did not remember what years and models were included in the recall. He suggested i contact toyota. I did contact toyota and was told that my vehicle was included in the recall but that the recall had expired in july of 2015. I purchased this vehicle new in 2006 and have been the only owner of the truck. I was never notified of this recall and had no idea there was a problem with their trucks. After speaking on the phone with a toyota repnad being told they would not do anything for my truck i sent an email to their headquarters and they responded that they stood behind their original response. I do not understand how a safety recall can expire. The safety problem will always be there until fixed. I feel i am now driving a dangerous vehicle and feel that toyota should stand by whatever the original remedy was.
