On 11/25/22 I meet with American Auto Mall to buy a used truck I was assured through text, website and window sticker that the truck was in excellent condition inside and out.. I have all this documents proofing this.. I did van limited inspection at the lot and a test drive.. found nothing that stuck out.. other than the radio not working but the dealership said he would reimburse me if I got it fixed..so after that a down payment was made of $5550 dollars and paperwork was signed.. I drove the truck home and the next week I got in it and it wouldn't start, turns out it needed a battery and alternator, so I took it to a shop and was told that this vehicle was badly rusted and had a lot of hidden rust damage.. and improperly installed brakes., coolant leaks and exhaust leaks.. after finding this out I tried to call the dealership and he hasn't been replying.. I was also told this truck wouldn't pass a legal VA inspection.. so the current one was fraudulent I have all documents that support my case. I will like to turn this vehicle back in and given a full refund

Like many others on here, my truck bed and structure has rusted over certain supports from the bottom up. My vehicle has had a topper since it was new, and it has now developed heavy rust under the paint in the front corners over a brace. There are many forum entries and complaints about this issue.

The bed of my 2011 Tundra is rusting through from the bottom up. The truck has had a topper over the bed since shortly after purchasing brand new and has never spent a night outside of the garage. The rust issue could be a safety hazard as the frame or other components could be compromised in a crash if they are not structurally sound.

Paint bubbling or rusting in the floor of the bed of the truck. Numerous spots. Couple months out of warranty and they won't cover it.

2011 Toyota Tundra bed cover mounting hardware failed during driving causing the entire bed cover to fly off. The installation hardware apprear to be too small to keep the hard cover falling off. The result is a potential dangerous situation should this happen at speed with a car behind. The screws are surprisly small and loosen themselves over time. This cover came as an option from Toyota but does not have a Toyota label.
