I tried to take my 2007 Toyota Tacoma for a recall about the leaf springs to Modern Toyota in Winston-Salem, NC. Modern Toyota took my truck for inspection, but upon return, informed me the would not replace the component nor were the obligated to do so.

AIR BAGS

Single car accident resulting in rollover. Concerns about NO airbag deployment

STRUCTURE

I have a well cared for, garaged 2007 Tacoma. It had a recall for a known frame corrosion issue. I had it inspected by Toyota and they chose not to replace the frame, choosing instead to apply a CRC spray in 2016. I have learned that my vehicle was sprayed by a formula that was later known to Toyota to harbor water and accelerate rusting. My vehicle has just failed state inspection and was identified to have a cracked frame in two places. Both left and right sides of the frame, behind the cab, and directly across from one another. The fact that Toyota now chooses not to honor any warranties, or provide consumer help, (I just spoke with their "Brand Engagement Center"), when I am the recipient of 2 known and compounding failures seems a dereliction of responsibility. I have a vehicle that should have a lot of service life left but for inadequate steel being used in production, that was then given an inadequate remedy which was later discontinued by Toyota after being found to accelerate corrosion. This seems like an obvious case of manufacturer responsibility but I'm being told I'll receive no assistance from the Toyota corporation. I wonder whether the inspection done in the first place was adequately and responsibly performed.

The contact stated that the failure was not diagnosed by a dealer or independent mechanic. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 500,000.

STRUCTURE,UNKNOWN OR OTHER

My 2007 Toyota Tacoma has an open recall on the rear leaf springs due to the risk of fuel tank puncture and fire. However, Toyota and their authorized dealership are unable to perform this safety recall because the vehicle’s frame is too severely rusted. The dealership informed me that attempting the repair could further damage the vehicle, and they requested I sign a waiver releasing Toyota of liability if harm occurs during the recall process. They also informed me that replacement frames are no longer available, so the recall cannot be completed as I was interested to pay for this to get the recall safely completed This leaves me with a vehicle that presents a known, life-threatening safety hazard, which Toyota cannot resolve. The frame corrosion is due to a previously acknowledged defect for which Toyota offered limited-time frame replacements that expired before I owned the vehicle. I believe Toyota is violating its obligation to provide a remedy for this open recall. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue, as it appears Toyota is leaving customers with dangerous, unrepaired vehicles and no available remedy.

SUSPENSION

It was determined by the Toyota dealer where this vehicle was purchased that there are rust holes in the frame. This vehicle's mileage is less than 100,000 miles. I understand there was a recall at one time however the Toyota dealership advised that this truck was not one of the vehicles in the recall at that time. This truck has always been garaged, has low miles and well maintained. You would think it would be able to be driven another 150k miles. This is a safety issue and I don’t feel I should be penalized for taking good care of this vehicle. It is a known fact within the industry that Toyota used bad steel for their frames during this year if manufacture. Please advise what you can do to remedy this situation. Thank you

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Tacoma. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V604000 (SUSPENSION); and the vehicle was taken to a local dealer for the recall repair; however, the dealer declined to service the vehicle because of the excessive rust on the subframe of the vehicle. The contact was informed that the subframe needed to be replaced before the recall repair could be performed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 198,000.

Purchased my 2 tacoma in 11/24 second party learned of leaf spring tested and failed sent me home in rent a car demanding it back 2 min upon my arrival home due to the frame was damaged. Said they put it up on lift but didn't it was too dangerous. Had to he my vehicle out of their shop Saturday morning without the fix. Driving it off the lot from toyota Pittsfield Massachusetts. Called another toyota she sees in 16 it was inspected with recall but never fixed. I know if a pervious owner was aware who wouldn't get a fix for free? It came from an auction, a.dealership according to history. With no reports of it ever being fixed. I believe from much research this is the second recall for leaf springs. It was never explained to be except via text that it was terrible w insulation shoved in parts. Who had done it I'm not sure. CT. Toyota is amazed by the treatment I endured from Pitts toyota. Noone spoke to me.of alternatives, danger, cost to fix but just let me drive away unsafe. I'm appalled that toyota gets away with this when so many people are at risk. New tires oil change and this test Noone saw?? Until it was being cared for but refused. NO. It should be fixed all of this issue. The truck as many is in great shape engine everything for this is why I purchased it also knowing thinking how great totota is/was would be fixed being a federal recall. There are 10s of thousands of consumers still with this issue that most were unaware of. I was never personally told except a message.

The frame has been rusting real bad and seen other Tacomas same year and style have the recall. Especially rusting where the running boards were attached too
