Wow, I noticed some rusting on the frame in the engine compartment of my 03 Tundra used in Virginia. We have winter, snow and salt like Md, NJ, Southern NY, and Long Island. It was heavier than normal surface rust. Got me to planning the next project of a drill with a wire wheel, cleaner, primer and paint. But now I realize I'd be covering up a possible recall flaw. I remember having a Datsun B-210 in 1975 in NY. After 240,000 miles and about 7 years it had holes in the rocker panels that you could literally fit half your foot into up to the ankles. Rust holes on the quarter panels to and doors. BUT, that was 1975, recycled steel, cave man style rust preventative paints and undercoating ( like as in NONE) and it was a $2999 disposable car and most of all, NOT A 21st Century Toyota. . I love my Tundra and I'm beginning to feel that Toyota Corporation should be ashamed of itself. I bought a Toyota and spent more than a US truck for it's quality and longevity. The front end recall had me concerned but was quickly taken care of. Now, with what my truck looks like on the frame and what other trucks look like with more advanced rust.....I'm a bit pissed.
