Toyota Frame Settlement Postcard

thanks i just talked to one of the lawyers in the law firm for the settlement she said the same ,
,but one question i ask her , how many 10mm holes need to be found , she said just ( one. )do you agree cliffyk

 

That is the way I read it. If you don't have one that big, make one you do have that big now--so that it will look weathered when you bring you truck in...

--------------------------
I'd go to 11-12 mm just to be sure there's no argument.

 

thats was what i was thinking ,thanks

 

So I am from Florida, which isn't one of the states on the settlement. Does that mean I can't even have them coat my frame? I plan to move up north within the next year and it would be nice to have the coating before it starts to rust. I already have surface rust from being near the ocean, but nothing bad.

 

call

call Lelle the attorney in the law firm, for the settlement, i talked to, she Lelle, said call back if need more info. very nice and help full. 619-338-1100

 

That's what it says, only trucks "registered in the cold climate states" are covered by the CRC treatment part of the agreement--however when you do move and register in one of those states you will be covered, as long as it's within two years of the settlement date...

 

just called the attorney she explained it in non legal words. Settlement is starting now, can take cars in just confirmed a few minutes ago despite appeal. 10mm hole, just 1 needed, doesn't matter if you had CRC treatment before if there is a hole now, if no hole now and was never CRC coated you can have it done but only in CRC states listed in the settlement, some states have EPE regs and don't allow there are reasons a state isn't included. Interesting toyota didn't appeal, just individuals. Toyota agreed to do the settlement despite the appeal, plus they still have to fight the appeals and spend money on that as does the attorneys for our side. toyota could have rode out the appeal time for a couple years without doing our frames. she was polite 619-338-1100

 

Good information!

 

We are planning on moving to Colorado and I just realized Colorado isn't covered as a cold climate state.... Bummer.

 

thats interesting no hole no crc coating and total frame replacment , but those of us how followed the crc program must have a hole, ok, hole you need hole you get !

 

Yes, I remember reading something about the differences between the counties. I specifically remember being jealous and mad. Because before this class action lawsuit came about, if your frame had been coat ed in the states and your frame still rusted Toyota didn't care.

 

question i going to look for a hole s were on the frame is the most rusted on theses trucks

 

I do not really know, however I have read posts stating that near the catalytic converters is a common failure point...

 

So it sounds to me, based on this statement. I have a truck that I bought in Deleware, had it registered in Pennsylvania for five years, now live in Texas, frame is rusty as fuck, no holes that I can find, but, I'm still eligible for frame replacement.

 

Not without at least one 10 mm hole...

 

Has anything been said recently about the Dec 2016 ownership date thing?

 

No and you shouldnt either.

 

I called my dealer and spoke with the service manager and they are saying they have not heard anything about it yet. Going to give it another week. I'm hoping to get it inspected before we move to Reno in a couple weeks. I dont think I have any holes, but I want the frame coated before I leave.

 

Toyota will bring that up soon enough...

 

Not according to the attorneys....
