I think they are doing it for the earlier years. Haven't heard anything about our trucks.

Toyota Extends Frame Rust Coverage to 15 Years (95-00 Models)

I think its the 95.5-99's?

EDIT: I was close 2000, darn.

So I guess the mess with the 86 - 88's is expected??

Toyota has really dropped the ball when it comes to rust protection to..glad to see them try to correct some of their mistakes

Sorry for the somwhat off topic post but this IS about rust.

Here is my Moms 03' Sequioa SR5 4x2. I noticed this a little while ago while washing it. The rear end of the vehicle seems to have quite a bit of rust. Is this normal for a vehicle with going on 75K on it?

I would have got more/better pics but its 46degrees out there and freezing.
