Some structural supports also rotted on the frame.

The frame on my o6 tundra is deteriorated badly tire shop wouldn't perform work requested. My question is you send recalls for airbags etc. For the safety of passengers what about everyone on the roads safety. Toyota should be responsible for this as they were with many other models. This should be looked at for the safety of everyone on the road.

The frame was sprayed a few years back for a rust recall. The spray did not help and after bringing my truck to the mechanic for maintenance, it was revealed that the rust has now caused holes in the frame and it is beginning to separate at the weld. The brake lines are also about to pop.

Excessive frame rot on my 2006 tundra. The truck was brought to the dealer to have the corrosion coating applied but it didn't stop the frame from rotting prematurely. Two years later all the coating has peeled off and the rust has gotten way worse. The same year sequoias have the same frame and they were recalled. Why hasn't the 2003-2006 tundras been included? This is a safety issue an must be resolved.

Toyota tundra 2006 rusted frame, straight to the point i have a 2006 tundra diagnosed may 15 2018 buy the toyota dealership with rust through on the frame and toyota tell's me they will do nothing about it. I find that strange since toyota replaced many many frames on 2000 to 2006 tundra's.

Earlier in the year of 2017, a class action lawsuit against toyota (brian warner et al. V. Toyota motor sales) was settled regarding frame rust and corrosion. This lawsuit led to the recall of all 2005-2010 tacomas, 2007-2008 tundras, and 2005-2008 sequoias. Being that the sequoias are based off of the tundra it is interesting that the respective years of tundras were not included with the sequoias. The argument for…

This is a serious safety hazard or could have even killed someone and toyota did not even notify me of the issue. When i did find out about this and contacted toyota they said this is not an issue and there is no problem.

I took the vehicle in for inspection which resulted in them cleaning and spraying something on the frame on 5/9/14 with 89,820 miles on the vehicle. When attempting to trade the vehicle in on 4/19/17 with approximately 109,000 miles on it, it was determined there is a hole in the frame where the front…
