| Description of the problem | My vehicle recently failed inspection due to frame rust in the rear and possibly in the front of the vehicle. I previously had taken the vehicle to a local toyota dealer to inspect the frame during a recall notice. The dealership did not do anything to the vehicle. The vehicle has almost 196,000 miles and should last a lot longer. But it is useless now and the frame rust problems of these models is unacceptable. The frame should be able to last the duration of the vehicle and toyota has known about this problem for a very long time. |
