I bought a 1993 4x4 toyota pickup used and discovered it is rusted worse than any other vehicle ive ever seen. The frame is rusted into in multiple places, the brake lines have rusted off and I've lost all brakes so I cant drive it at all now. It runs and goes great or well it did untill frame broke and brakes went out. Apparently 1993 frames are the worst frames to have according to everything ive seen online. What bothers me is I have a 1991 two wheel drive toyota truck just like it and it doesn't have any rust...

at all nowhere on frame or body. And both trucks are from the same area. The 4x4 thats literally a death trap only has 220000 miles on it which is nothing really. The only reason I even bought the truck is because toyota trucks are known to go 3,4,or sometimes 500000 miles with hardley any trouble. I would just love to b able to drive my truck again, thats all I want. There should definitely b a recall for extreme frame and body rust. It shouldn't b that rusty, it's literally the worst ive ever seen
I purchased a used vehicle with new lemans champion se tires on it (p185/75r14) approximately five years ago. I only drive this vehicle occasionally (11,000 miles in 5 years). About six months ago the vehicle started pulling to the right as if it was out of alignment. Recently, while I was away at work, the left front tire suffered and explosive failure while sitting in my driveway. It looks like a high speed separation. I emailed the manufacturer with pictures and the response was a copy of the warranty...

information (12 months). My main concern was that the tire's steel belts separated while sitting still. If it had happened at highway speeds, one can imagine the results. I immediately purchased new tires, different brand, and took them to my mechanic for installation. He informed me that another one of the tires had steel belt separation also. As I described the vehicle pulling to the right while driving, he explained that it was caused by the one tire on the left front having a larger diameter due to steel belt separation.
Engine light came on, then the vehicle lost power at 65 mph as if it had been shut off, almost causing an accident. The code reader indicated a problem with the accelerator pedal sensor. The shop cleaned it, but it has occurred a second time, this time at 55 mph.
