And I just found a massive thread on this topic MY50cal likes this. Blue92 , Jan 21, New member here, I just got mine back this morning. From the looks of the CRC stuff it looks and acts like wool wax. The process as explained to me was they washed the boxed sections of frame.
Then ran large brushes through the same sections. Hook it up to a dryer for 4 to 8 hours, install frame plugs and then use the crc to coat the frame. Any pics of the fresh sprayed frame? DirtTaco , Jan 21, Honestly i dint think about it, i got the call picked her up and went to work, if it isnt to cold in the morning ill snap some. Black DOG Lila likes this. Blue92 , Jan 22, As promised here is some pics of the frame plugs, and looks like over spray from the boxed sections.
Boxed area was not done on mine and guess where I have holes. If yours was treated well, then awesome for you. Hopefully you have a good shop at your dealership.
Spokesmen for both Honda and Toyota said their companies in some cases have even set up phone banks to call owners of vehicles involved in recalls. In addition to the purported sub-standard materials and processing Dana employed; the frames of earlier 2nd gens had large holes for salt and debris to enter into the front box section causing them to rust from the inside.
At least now Toyota factory plugs these larger frame holes. What year Tacoma is recalled frame? Category: automotive off road vehicles. What year is the most reliable Toyota Tacoma?

How to check if your car has a recall. Find your VIN. If anyone was wondering, Toyota is still doing the frame rust buy back. Jeremy , Feb 17, MTopp likes this. Curious to see what steps you went thru for this buy back option? What were your first indications of problems with the frame? I read somewhere online about the recall weeks before I received the letter. Currently at this time, I had my receiver looked at because I knew something was wrong. In fact, the guy said NOT to carry anything bc receiver may literally snap off.
When I took my taco to dealership with notice in hand they took it like you would expect and gave me a general timeframe to have it looked at. Within 10 minutes they called me and said with it only being a NOTICE they can't really look at it since there hasn't been a "fix" decided for it yet So that's why I'm curious.
Thank you, Havok. Sub'd for steps you took. The frame on my truck was rusted through on the passenger side, so the damage was obvious. I explained what I had read online about getting the truck inspected for rust perforation, and that if the damage was bad enough, Toyota would replace the frame or buy the truck back. The APA has received about a dozen complaints from Toyota owners who believe their trucks have fallen through the cracks of the warranty extension program.
It appears that the additional rust treatments you have been applying may have helped. Have you considered getting in touch with Krown Rust Control, to determine if there is some guidance they can provide?
And the Krown warranty should cover a preventive repair to your frame if one is indicated. For more information, there is a page on the APA website that illustrates the vulnerable areas needing additional protection. Your email address will not be published. My last visit to the dealership to have my AC serviced I was informed of bad corrosion on the frame.
A week later I had a stuck caliper and took it for the first time to a local mechanic he informed me the frame was unsafe in the dealership had it under sprayed the local mechanic could peel off the black coating and showed me holes and rot under it I can see through the frame.
I am currently waiting for response back from the dealership hoping they restore my faith and thinking I should request an official frame inspection because my vehicle will be 15yrs old this July although the 12yr warranty had expired in We have a Tundra and have rust everywhere just had it to Hanover Toyota they did nothing for us I dont think that is right they said they put a coating on it in and did not no that they did that till I took it to Hanover Toyota this week will not do nothing for us plain words its are baby not happy.
Very disappointed in Toyota. My frame had a hole so big you could put your hand through it, yet the body is literally perfect with non rust anywhere. Toyota wants to put cream on their rusty holes. In my case they said i was too late and they did nothing. What a disgrace Toyota has become.
Never again Toyota! Join the facebook group here and post your photos. Toyota has made this family decide to never buy another one. My son has a Tacoma we recently noticed severe frame damage due to rust he is unable to drive it now due to it being unsafe is there anything we can do. Due to the large volume of comments we receive, we regret that we are unable to respond directly to each one.
