problem #3

Tacoma 4WD 6-cyl

  • 215,000 miles
The frame is rusted, in some areas, clear through. The brackets that hold suspension have rusted through. Everything that touches the frame has an excess amount of rust. The truck is parked because I'm afraid it will cause great bodily harm if the truck falls apart while driving.

My husbands 1996 Tacoma was recalled due to rusting underneath and was dangerous to drive, but because we were in chapter 13 we were told to come and get the truck back from the dealer. We are now done this month with the chapter 13 and we have called Toyota and they will not make good on the recall offer. My husband now has a truck that he cannot sale or trade because it is red tagged.
