problem #1

Apr 012013

4Runner 4WD 6-cyl

  • 119,722 miles
The frame has suffered serious rust through also described as "frame rot" in postings on line of Toyota 4-runner problems. This rust through has made the vehicle unsafe and currently unusable. The rust was discovered when the entire rear axle was replaced at my expense. Toyota would not allow that they were responsible for faulty manufacturing of the rear axle either which was yet another safety concern.
