2007 Toyota Tundra Other Problems

Your truck's frame has developed significant rust with holes 10mm or larger, compromising the vehicle's structural integrity. The rust damage started years ago and went unnoticed until after Toyota's warranty extension program ended in January 2019. You're requesting that Toyota convert this voluntary warranty program into a mandatory recall to cover all affected vehicles, as this poses a serious safety risk.

Your 2007 Tundra's frame has developed rust and holes, which is a known issue affecting many Tundras from this generation. The frame deteriorated quickly after you moved from Florida to New York, and Toyota applied multiple coatings as a temporary fix rather than addressing the underlying problem. Frame repairs or replacement will likely be necessary to restore structural integrity.

Suddenly, I discovered that my fuel tank showing as if it's about to drop on the ground. As I inspected, the fuel tank rear strap broke off the frame due to corrosion. the strap itself was not the issue, part of the corroded frame was still attached to the strap. When I took the truck to my local Mechanic, further inspection showed worse signs of corrosion in the entire frame and in every part connected to the frame as well; suspension parts, brake parts, emergency brake parts, spare tire hinge; etc. Against my disagreement with Toyota dealership, I had the truck painted by Toyota as they recommended during the frame recall in February of 2018. I wanted to replace the frame, based on other professionals advice, but Toyota Dealership insisted that my truck frame is in good shape it ONLY needs the paint recommended by Toyota. I come to find out that they have not remove nor clean any rust and they painted on top of it. Additionally, They never painted the cross members above the tank Now, when I looked under the truck, the paint has coming off in greater areas of the frame showing heavy rust under it. Which means the paint job was a joke, and worthless. Now, after seeing this, I am wondering how can I possibly drive this truck. The tank can drop any time or the spare tire latch can break off, causing a disaster on a highways where I drive. My emergency brake not even adjustable any more due to the heavy rust caused by the frame. Toyota failed to engineer the frame, and later on, failed again to correct their own mistake. contacted the dealer and waited for a month, no response. I called Toyota headquarter and filed a complaint. They respond is that because the recall program has expired there is no further assistance from Toyota. My question to Toyota is, are they going to wait to hear a disaster on one of the highways caused by their faulty equipment and workmanship, or will they take action before it happen. Attached are some pictures.

FIRST AND ONLY TIME I USED THE SUPPLIED JACK FOR MY 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. I FOLLOWED THE DIRECTIONS AS INDICATED IN OWNERS MANUAL AND WAS ON LEVEL GROUND AT TIME OF THIS PITIFUL JACK?S FAILURE. THE JACK DID NOT HOLD THE WEIGHT OF MY TRUCK WHEN I HAD TO REMOVE A TIRE. AS A RESULT, THE TRUCK FELL OFF OF THE JACK AND CAUSED MULTIPLE DAMAGE TO TIRE I USED (THANK GOD!!) AS A JACK STAND. THE ROTOR OF REAR PASSENGER SIDE WAS BENT AND THE LEAF SPRINGS OF THAT PASSENGER SIDE SHIFTED AND ARE NOW NOT ALIGNED PROPERLY.*DT CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE WAS DAMAGE BY THE FAILED JACK. DEALER DID NOT OFFER TO REPLACE THE JACK AND STATED VEHICLE WAS PAST WARRANTY.*JB
