WHEN MY VEHICLE HAD 4000 MILES ON IT I GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT THAT CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE ORIGINAL FRAME. THE FRAME WAS REPLACED BY A TOYOTA FACTORY FRAME PURCHASED BY THE AUTO BODY THAT WAS DOING THE WORK FROM A TOYOTA DEALER. I NOTICED RECENTLY THAT THERE WAS A EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF CORROSION, WARPING AND A CRACK IN THE REAR SECTION OF THE FRAME THAT IS ON THE VEHICLE. I STARTED TO RESEARCH THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND A RECALL FOR CERTAIN 2005 AND UP TACOMA'S SO I CALLED THE TOYOTA AMERICA 800 NUMBER TO SEE WHAT THE PROCESS IS TO GET IT TAKEN CARE OF I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL AND THE ONLY THING I COULD DO IS TAKE IT TO A DEALER FOR INSPECTION, SO I DID THEY NOTED THE ISSUE AND TALKED TO THE LOCAL SERVICE MANAGER WHICH IN TURN SAID THE VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT ASSOCIATES THE FRAME THAT THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS WITH MY VIN. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE ONLY THING THEY COULD DO FOR ME IS TAKE IT AS A TRADE IN. *TR
