My 2004 Tacoma with 55,000 miles is being called in for frame rust
inspection. if the rust is bad enough they want to replace the frame.
Aside from my disappointment with Toyota I think I have a problem with
the local dealership replacing an entire frame. With the older
Tacomas the factory bought back the vehicle at up to $14,000. But
since the newer truck frames are available they have chosen to replace
the frames.
I wonder whether the local guys have the experience needed to do this
"factory" work.
Anyone else been through this? Any suggestions. This of course after
I just put 4 new Michelins on it.
Damn.
