Description of the problem	My 2006 tundra is like new in all respects but one; all toyota recommended routine and periodic maintenance performed by copeland toyota for 13 years; frame has failed due to corrosion. Upon frame recall for corrosion in 2014, copeland indicated frame was "not that bad" and said they would just apply corrosion protection coating instead of replacing frame. I trusted and accepted their advice. Since then, toyota forums indicate spray on coating exacerbates corrosion problem. Copeland replaced power steering unit last year; when i looked under truck to see new unit, was shocked at condition of frame. Next routine service appointment i asked copeland for their opinion on frame corrosion and they told me frame has failed. Poor condition of frame was obvious; stabilizer bar had pulled out of frame. How much more work would they have performed and charged me for if i had not brought subject up?? This is a safety issue! Copeland sent me to toyota . Com for help; toyota. Com offered no assistance and pointed finger at copeland for their decision not to replace.
