My 2007 Toyota Tundra sr5 has a very bad frame and under body rust issue (I have multiple pictures and videos I can provide). Last August, I found out on a Toyota forum that there is a recall/class action settlement for this issue http://www.toyotaframesettlement.com I have contacted Toyota coorporate on (or around) 08/03/2018 (incident: 180803-000275) for more information and asked where I should take my truck for inspection. I was told they can't help because my truck was built (of configured) for the canadian market. I contacted Toyota Canada ([phone]) and was told they can't help because I don't reside in Canada and the frame settlement is only for residents https://www.clg.org/class-action/list-of-class-actions/Toyota-rusty-frame-canadian-class-action . I have already spent over $1500 worth of brake cables, tensioner and other rusted parts. …

My gas tank strap rotted off my frame causing my full gas tank to almost fall out. My frame rotted very bad also. I know there were recalls concerning this issue but I'm not sure if they were done to mine. I've only had the truck for three months what do I do?
The vehicle did not pass PA state inspection due to broken front shock mounts and severe frame corrosion.
Excessive bouncing on freeways speeds 45-70 some worse than others (91freeway east around corona, ca )is good example of the bounce I have had trucks all my life so some bounce is understandable. When I took it to the dealer in March 07 they told me Toyota was aware of the problem and was trying to figure out a solution in January 08 I contacted Toyota through there web site and they replied they had no complaints about this problem. May be they fixed it since then on the 08 but this is more than a little bounce. Bouncing like it dose what's going to happen when I have to come to fast stop ?and the extra vibration can't be go fortunately I don,t have a infant. …
Toyota corporation refers to this issue as "bed bounce". The complaint is that at speed of 50-65 & 70 MPH, the 2007 Tundra pick-up vibrates and bounces to the point of uncomfortable and what I feel is unsafe. It is as if all4-wheels are out of balance. Now Toyota corporation is admitting to me that thay are aware of this issue and are trying to come up with a fix, however its been 6 months and stiill no fix from Toyota corporation. I have had the vehicle to them ( the dealer repair shops) two times to two different dealers and have an appoinment with Toyota corporate engineers on November 1st 2007. …
