Have had to replace lower arm on drivers side and passengers side needs replaced also. Frame is rusting out. Excessive rust for the year. Advised by mechanic that truck is unsafe to drive. Truck is basically rotting in half. Toyota is recalling other trucks due to same problem with the frames but not this truck. Have talked to 2 Toyota dealers and advised there is nothing to be done on these trucks it only the ones that have been recalled the Tacoma and now the sequoias. For the same issues.

Vehicle fuel lines had rusted and leaked gasoline necessitating replacement approx 1 year ago. Currently, as of 06/18/2012, there is "excessive rust for miles and age of car" (on entire frame and suspension components per mechanic exam). The lower control arms have holes caused by rust that could affect control of vehicle. This is similar to recall of same vintage Toyota Tacoma pickup trucks.
