It's a cover-up all right. Blaming the supplier again, of course. And never mentioning the word recall. But that's Toyota for you. Corporate sleaezbags of the finest.
well your right sleezbags of the worse kind they offer to buy back the vehicles at depreciated value

while GM Chevy or Ford would have just said
your problem not ours
or totally try and Deny that the problem even exists
or continue to ignore it over and over and over hoping it will go away

your right they are the devil incarnate :lol:

The reason Toyota is doing this is because it's a real safety issue, not because they're doing it from the bottom of their hearts. I read a post at some Tacoma board where they are estimating this will cost Toyota $4 billion; that's a pretty penny for failing to properly apply undercoating.

If a bunch of these Tacoma frames start snapping while driving at high speeds and people get injured or killed, the media will eat them alive. And from what I have read, apparently this same problem is affected newer Tacomas and even the '07 Tundra is starting to see early rust.

Taken a couple weeks at an auction; guy put it into reverse and the frame snapped...
