NHTSA complaint #10910969, filed 2016-10, 78,000 miles“On 12/05 I noticed something hanging from underneath my 2000 Toyota Tacoma pick up truck. When I got down to pull it out, I realized it was rust from my frame, that has completely rusted through. I called Toyota consumer services, spoke to a gentleman who was very rude, telling me that I had missed the warranty extension time limit and because I didn't register my new address with them, they wouldn't do anything. First, the truck was paid for when I moved. …”
