06 Toyota Tundra SR5 with has severe frame rusting, to the point the truck has became a safety hazard. I tried to take the truck in for a Fluid Film coating and/or a Ziebart coating, and they both said I shouldn't even bother. Hundreds of thousands of these trucks all had frame issues, and Toyota should step up to the plate and fix them.

My frame on the truck is rusting and cracking. Toyota issued a recall for 2000-2003 tundras and didn’t include the 2004-2006 tundras. These frames are a danger to the driver and others on the road.

Frame has snapped after being denied a replacement by Toyota under their extended service campaign for frame issues. Dealer told customer to make a separate appointment for frame inspection while truck was in for unrelated service and campaign had expired while customer was in hospital ultimately ending with Toyota denying a replacement citing that customer was outside of date for service campaign.

Tried to make an appointment with Ray Brandt Toyota in Kenner Louisiana. Made the appointment online, but could not get someone to call me back telling me if the airbag part was in I tried calling countless times I tried going through their website. Chat nothing. I’m going to have to drive over an hour away to another Toyota dealership, due to this once lack of concern towards their customers. I don’t even feel safe driving my vehicle due to metal being in the airbags.

I purchased vehicle from private dealership Mar/23 with mileage of 77k. While under dealer warranty had it inspected at local Toyota dealership for frame defects. Was told none were found and none were reported in service records. These records were from the Toyota dealership where previous(and original) owner had every factory recommended service performed over a 16 year period. In Dec/23 I discovered, on accident, significant deterioration of frame components as well as a large hole in the main frame rail. This hole was disguised with sheet metal, epoxy, and spray paint. Took it back for re-inspection where the issues were recognized as in serious need of repair. Other trucks of this era were eligible for frame replacement but was told mine was not, nor are the necessary parts available should I want to replace the frame out-of pocket. Truck now has only 82k miles on it but driving it poses a safety concern for those in and around it.
