    I’ve been Driving Toyota trucks for over 20+ years.. they were my bread and butter but needless to say!...because Toyota doesn’t care!..

    I left the dealership got the truck up to 48-mph and it nearly vibarated me into on coming traffic!!
    I could have killed someone or myself!!!!!

    They blew it off..,
    More to come to the full story I experienced with Toyota!

    I had the worst experience with the frame recall and was treaded horrible!

    I’m making a decision to never buy a new Toyota truck again!

    Dealing with intermediated steering shaft now!!! They need to recall it!

    Who makes an account just to tell everyone you’re done with your tacoma? You don’t see me making accounts on Buick forums all day. Is there a Buickworld.com?

    Also, one bad experience and you'll stop doing something you've done for 20 years? Do you divorce your wife every time you disagree?

    It's probably a troll. Not a very good one though.

    posts in the New Member forum as well as the Off Topic forums (I think) don't go toward your post count...helps keep new people from joining and trying to pad their post counts to sell stuff right away

    thanks everyone for your great reply’s... such kindness in the world!

    I get it you don’t care it didn’t happen to you.

    And yes it was a big part dealership but when headquarters tells you one thing and then lies...

    Bull shit!!! And no they don’t deserve people’s business if they can be like that to me or anyone for that matter.

    if you would have given me time to finish the story maybe you would understand!

    If a company put there name on a product back it up or pack it up!

    Don’t give your name to a service center/dealer that lets you drive off the lot with a unsafe car or truck bottom line!

    All yeah shouldn’t you test drive a truck after a new frame was put on!

    If Toyota won’t help and the dealership don’t care,...

    I’m the one with the bill and a truck that was given back to me after paying nearly a $1000.00 for repairs that Toyota said was covered and then they say we didn’t say that or sorry the people we have working for us didn’t know that wasn’t covered in the recall.


    Was your kid in the truck That day!!!

    other people was involved it made me run someone off the road..

    Two hands on the wheel yanking the wheel as hard as possible to get back in my lane on a straight stretch..once I got 50mph

    With my child in the truck and the other people had kids too!

    Yes I’m still upset over this matter! I’ve waited nearly a year to final see if corporate would help.

    They didn’t repair it right, wouldn’t put back on aftermarket parts that was on the truck before I took it in...and also damage the vechilcle and charged me for parts.

    I was told were covered in the recall..

    (From corporate Toyota headquarters TX)

    I only asked for reimbursement for the parts that I paid for and was told from corporate that it should have been covered!!!

    You put new struts on (2mo old) and have them charge you for new struts because their not factor parts and we can’t use aftermarket parts! Or we can’t put parts back on your truck after we take them off, because their aftermarket parts!

    They were on the truck before it went in!!!!



    The near to death wobble was a whole another thing on top of a bunch of other shit!

    Bottom line is this..if you get lied to from the manufacturers after making complaints filing forms, faxing bills, hours and hours lost during work time and over 20+ hours in phone calls and call backs total.. and to find out they don’t give a shit and lied.

    After being a loyal owner and proud driver of a Toyota..over twenty years!

    I really wanted to take the time and describe in detail what happened to me but after reading reply’s who cares anyway!

    All I wanted is for Toyota to see this!

    And for other people to know that a free frame recall can led you into a bill you might not be able to afford in the moment..

    Long story short..I ended up
    taking it to another shop back yard mechanic and had it repaired in a day!

    To those a holes out there, come on down to Athens Ohio..I have something for you and it won’t be just a opportunity or a opinion! We don’t have to talk at all..**cking world is full of opinions and a holes! But if you have something to say direct to me or about me say it to my face!
    Happy to give you my address!


    To the people that had replied and showed any type of understanding, compassion or just their opinion in a kind manner....,

    I wanted to say thank you!
