We own a 2001 Tundra with severe rust problems on the frame, brakes, body parts, spare tire, suspension and nuts and bolts all over the vehicle. The spare tire dropped from the rear of the truck due to rust and damaged the rear bumper. We have spent thousands of dollars to repair rusted items on this truck.

I have an 2001 Toyota Tundra that was purchased and has been driven in the northeast. It has a rusted(quoted from a Toyota mechanic) emergency brake line. Wondering if this is apart of the rust recall already in place with the Tundra.

I have a 2001 Toyota Tundra that has a ruinous amount of rust on the undercarriage. I have spent thousands on exhaust work and can no longer justify putting money into this truck. The check engine light came on within months of my having purchased the vehicle. After many attempts to repair the problem, the light will go off, but then something else goes wrong with the exhaust system and it comes back on. It's on right now despite my having just gotten it out of the garage a few weeks ago. The heat shield continuously rattles because of the rust. Also, the parking brake line is rusted to the point of being unusable. This is my work vehicle and I'm afraid I'm getting close to being without my truck. I am very disappointed in this truck. If I'm not helped out by this situation, Toyota will lose a life-long customer.

Brake pedal fades under pressure and acts inconsistently. At times the brakes engage near the top of the pedal and at other times almost at the floor. Brake light has come on several times. Parking brake will engage after three or four clicks and the next time will not engage almost to floor. Dealer has replaced pads, drums, disks, etc. Dealer and Toyota motor sales will not return calls, letters, etc.
