2001 Toyota Tundra Other or unknown Problems

“Accelerating on an on-ramp to go on the freeway, a massive bump was felt. I lost control of the car using momentum and difficult steering to get me to the side of the freeway. I discovered the wheel was disengaged and was only attached by the brake line. Mechanic inspected the damage and said the ball joint broke off causing the wheel to be disengaged.”

“The frame is the first mentioned in recall with supplemental conditions..... My vehicle was diagnost with perforation in said frame but was told it didnt me supplemental conditions.”

“Frame/chassis is rusting at weld joints and mounts. Paint is bubbling and rust is visible below the cracked paint areas, which concerns me since I tow a 6,000 lbs rv trailer. I am also concerned that the vehicle might not pass the virginia state vehicle inspection.”

Indeed they did but did not clean any rust off. And that means this undercoating will be off in less then 6 months. Where there was heavy rust scaling and all other rust.

I told them I had concerns over spraying over rust, but said they were sure Toyota would stand behind it. Feb 2014 the technician made a comment about the rust and lack of compound visible. Feb 2015 the technician again said it was clear that the crc was almost gone. He made a note of it on the service report. …”
