They have been this way since I have owned the vehicle and are stock and have not been tampered with.”

Body and structure: “The last time I had my 1992 Toyota Truck dlx lubed and oil changed, the automobile mechanic said my frame was rusting in two under the passenger side of my pickup truck. He said it could be too dangerous to drive the truck with the frame rusting away like this. He also mentioned that Toyota mfg was recalling certain trucks for this reason. I would like to know if I can get my truck included in this recall?”
