I just put 1800 dollars into a dyeing horse... I bought toyota for a reason. They built some trucks on frames knowing they were no good in new england weather.... Please help ... *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2000 toyota tundra. The contact stated that the power steering was loose and leaking fluid. He can only drive between 5-10 miles before having to add more fluid in the vehicle. The leaf springs that are carried to support the vehicle are failing. The failure and current mileages were 88,650.

I had to replace my power steering rack due to rust. This was done in july of 2008. When the service tech (actually all in shop) looked at it, they said they had never seen anything like it. The part was literally crumbling in their hands. Now in nov. Of 2009, i read that toyota is saying that this truck did not receive the proper rust protection when built. I am a long standing toyota owner. This i hoped to handled…

Excessive rust. Sway bar ends links rusted off. Power steering rack rusted thru and leaked needed replacement. Exhaust header leak because of rust. Several tech's have called it a 'rust bucket' underneath. *tr
