2006 Toyota Tundra suspension problems

“The frame has rusted so badly that the sway bar mount disengaged from the frame. Brought it to a Toyota dealership and confirmed that frame recalls were performed on earlier models with the same issue . However my year did not qualify.”

“The lower ball joint broke causing the upper ball joint to break and damage the strut rocked pion and the brake line. I contacted Toyota and they said it was fixed from a former recall”

“The frame on my 2006 Toyota Tundra SR5 has severe corrosion and multiple areas of rust perforation despite being treated under Toyota’s Limited Service Campaign D0D in 2015. During that campaign, the dealer removed the bed, documented active rust on the frame, cleaned it, and applied Corrosion-Resistant Compound (CRC) to key areas as the preventative remedy. As documented in multiple repairs the corrosion was already advancing at the time the CRC was applied, the steering shaft boot was replaced the same day as the compound was put on at 93,822 miles, several other critical safety failure shortly after; the brake pivots seized at 94900, Rotors rust pitted at 99537, bumper had perforations at 109407, 1 brake line from master cylinder and 1 brake line from ABS actuator leaking near the junction block on L/S of the frame at 113422, 52 days later the shift cable was broken at 114904. The current perforation and delamination indicate that the D0D remedy failed to prevent structural degradation as intended. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The vehicle’s structural integrity is severely compromised, creating a risk of frame failure while driving.…”

“Truck won’t pass inspection frame is rusted out like so many other 2006 Tundras. Some web searches showed this year was covered on recalls. In 2015 had a recall for corrosion on frame .. you mean RUST! However those don’t show up as recalls.. WHY? How do all of us affected do another class action law suit? Truck has 147,239 miles way too young to be no good! Can’t afford another car! Hey TOYOTA GIVE US KELLY BLUE BOOK AROUND 7000 or fix the frame! Any lawyers or news contact me! This family is screwed thanks to Toyota passing the buck”
