Leaf springs are under a recall.

Called toyota dealership about a recall (rear leaf springs) they told me there were 2 recalls,but not told to the owners-no notice sent out .they said the other recall is the rotting frame & it would be checked when i bring it in to have the springs replaced,which they had to order( also this has been 30 days ago).(note) this truck is all i have to drive.i checked the frame and it is bad ! there are places that i can poke my finger through the frame...if something happens i will come back on the gov. & toyota for not publicly and formally addressing this issue. i always liked toyota but i will probably never buy another one.......

I received a recall notice & was told that there was a back order of the part. an inspection indicated no immediate danger so i was placed on a waiting list for the leaf springs & would be called, but months passed &i wasn't called. i checked many times & in between calls, they gave my part to another customer.when they got another set, i arrived for the appt &was told that they could not do the replacement of the leaf springs because there was a lift block installed. i was told the only way that i can have the recall completed was to pay to have the lift removed from another shop & then toyota would do the recall work. i priced the cost of having the lift removed and was told by the aftermarket shop that other toyota dealerships were doing the leaf spring recall work without requiring the lift to be removed. i told the dealership & they still said they would not do the work. i am unable to afford the lift removal and reinstallation, the modification that was done to the truck is a simple block that is put under the leaf ...

I went to the my local toyota dealership to remedy the suspension spring gas tank puncture recall on my toyota and they said, they couldn't do it cause my truck has a body lift.

There is a recall can't get my toyato dealership to fix the recall gave them a copy of recall paper that i got

I called toyota of santa barbara to schedule this recall work to replace the rear leaf springs on my tacoma. i was told that the parts were on order and i would be called when they came in. i week or more later, i called again and told by a man in the parts department that the parts for the recall were still not in. he asked if i wanted to be put on the waiting list for the recall service. i was surprised to learn that despite my previous call i was not put on the list. the guy i spoke to was unable or unwilling to give me an estimate for when the service could be done, and said the faulty leaf springs could be used without risks. i was unwilling to be so cavalier with the defect and the potential for additional damage to my truck. i explained that when towing my small trailer the suspension bottoms out when hitting a dip or bump, even at slow speeds. i am planning a long camping trip across the west and canada and need this repaired before august 12th.

For the last year have been trying to get local toyato dealership (heyward allen toyato) to repair the recall keep getting same answer we have no product will call you when some come in. the same answer over and over. i want this done asap. if something happen to me or my truck i am going to sue heyward allen toyato. i do not want to do business with them is there anywhere else close that i can take my truck. and i want them to pay for my gas getting there why? because this should have been done 6-9 months ago. i have spoke with friends and strangers who have had there's done months ago the same time they where telling me there were none available. that they would call me when some came available that was in march of 2017.

I've been waiting on the toyota dealership to complete my recall for almost 2 years. they told me, back in august of 2016, that it would be a few months until they got the parts in. i called numerous times to get it done but nothing has come of it. the recall is for the rear leaf springs.
