I HAVE A 200 TOYOTA TUNDRA THAT EVERYTHING UNDERNEATH HAS ROTTED. HERE IS THE LIST OF WHAT M Y LOCAL GARAGE HAS REPLACED IN THE LAST TWO YEARS. STEERING BOX ROTTED OUT, BRAKELINES HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE, O2 CENSOR, GAS TANK FELL OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUCK, WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT, FRONT SIC ROTORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED FOUR TIMES SINCE 2000. (LITTLE EXCESSIVE?) EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE ROTTED OFF, SHICKS ROTTED OFF AFTER FOUR YEARS, EXHAUST SYSTEM REPLACED 3 TIMES, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST I NOW HAVE A BROKEN LEAF SPRING. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAY TOYOTA HAS NO INTENTION OF DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TRUCK. THE TRUCK IS DANGEROUS! THIS ALL STARTED TWO YEARS AGO AND THE BROKEN LEAF SPRING IS THE LAST STRAW. TOYOTA NEEDS TO MAKE GOOD ON THIS EXPENSIVE PIECE OF GARBAGE BEFORE I GET KILLED DRIVING IT. IT IS MY ONLY VEHICLE. *TR
