Hi, i had the recall preventive performed by toyota for rusting and corrosion of the frame. Now, the vehicle is rusting throughout the frame and is very very unsafe to drive. TOYOTA is claiming that it was a program and not a recall and had no documentation to prove. Toyota performed the recall and now the frame is still at risk to crack and very unsafe.

My 1999 Toyota Tacoma was involved in a rear end vehicle collision (the front of my vehicle struck the rear of a vehicle traveling in front of me) at a speed of approximately 40-45 mph. The roadway surface was smooth asphalt at a slight downgrade during clear/dry weather conditions on Monday 7/19/2021 at approximately 2:40 p.m. in Wythe County, VA. Neither the driver side nor passenger airbags deployed in this collision and the passenger side airbag switch was in the "ON" position. The front end damage was considerable to include destruction of front grille with radiator and other components pushed well into the engine compartment, hood, quarter panels, windshield cracked, and right front wheel joint assembly nearly detached. *Vehicle is available for inspection. *Complete failure of airbag deployment. *No indication of any airbag system issues with this vehicle. *Vehicle component has not been inspected by anyone since collision date. *No warning lamps or indicators prior to collis

The Toyota Tacoma 1999 has a complete damaged , rusted, broken frame which is dangerous. I took the car to the dealer and they said the recall for the frame is already expired and they will not accept it, what could i do to resolve this issue. Thank You

IN THE SUMMER OF 2016 I HAD NOTICED A LONG STRIP OF METAL HANGING BELOW MY 1999 TOYOTA TACOMA. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A PART OF THE FRAME. AFTER A MORE THOROUGH INVESTIGATION I HAD FOUND THE WHOLE FRAME RUSTED. THEN THROUGH RESEARCH DEEMED IT NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. IN 2009 , AFTER HEARING FROM A FRIEND(NOT TOYOTA), OF AN FRAME RUST ISSUE I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AN INSPECTION AT THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS GOOD WITH NO RECOMMENDATION TO REPLACE NOR TREAT . I LEFT THINKING I HAD A GOOD ONE (FRAME) THAT WASN'T AFFECTED BY THE RUST PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD TO 2016 WHEN OBVIOUS SIGNS OF THE ISSUE BECOME PRESENT AND THEN FIND OUT THERE WAS A 15 YEAR WINDOW TO HAVE THE FRAME REPLACED, TREATED OR BOUGHT BACK. THIS WAS NOT MY DAILY DRIVER BUT DEPENDED ON FREQUENTLY FOR HAULING AND PROJECTS. SO HERE IT SITS GOING ON THREE YEARS STILL NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO WITH IT. IT RUNS GREAT AND TOO NICE TO SCRAP. AND PROBABLY TO COSTLY TO FIX. A BUY BACK WOULD BE THE BEST RESOLUTION
