I took my 4 runner into garage in September to get inspection sticker and it failed. I was told that the power steering rack was leaking and needed changing. Unfortunately, I just took it today into another shop for better labor rates and the mechanic said the rack is fine but that the frame is completely rusted out. I know that there have been recalls on Tacoma and thundras made by Toyota for the same problem. I see there have been a lot of other complaints on the internet regarding issues of frames rusting on several 4 runners. Seems like there should be a recall.
