Due to a significant manufacturing error, Toyota 4Runners are prone to developing severe rust and corrosion that renders these vehicles unsafe and inoperable. Toyota's manufacturer, Dana Holding Corp., neglected to apply a vital anti-corrosion agent to the frames and undercarriages of Toyota 4Runners model years 2005-2011.
Toyota claims to use the "most advanced technology available" to prevent rust and corrosion, and its failure to do so resulted in a defective and dangerous product. Our attorneys provide experienced legal representation for individuals who have owned a defective Toyota 4Runner, model years 2005-2011.
The problem of Toyota frame rust is well-known because Toyota North America reached a settlement in 2016 to replace corroded frames in approximately 1.5 million trucks and SUVs. However, the Toyota rust settlement inexplicably excluded 4Runners. Critics argue that company executives have been aware of the dangerous problem of Toyota 4Runner rust since at least 2016 and have knowingly put millions of motorists at risk.
Persons who own a Toyota 4Runner that has developed significant frame and undercarriage rust and corrosion are seeking clarification of the qualifications required to participate in a Toyota 4Runner rust lawsuit. Our law firm offers free, no-obligation, confidential consultations to anyone who has a Toyota 4Runner with significant rust, but we have outlined the basic qualifications in this section.
In general, these are factors that are considered in each Toyota 4Runner rust lawsuit claim:
If you have a Toyota 4Runner, you may be eligible to file a Toyota 4Runner rust lawsuit. In 2016, Toyota North America settled for $3.4 billion in connection to defects in Tacomas, Sequoias and Tundras. Anyone who owned one of the 1.5 million vehicles included in this settlement could have the vehicle frame replaced by Toyota. 4Runners have been found to have the same problem, and the consumers affected are now filing a class action Toyota 4Runner rust lawsuit.
Toyota 4Runners manufactured between 2003 and 2008 may have been subject to a manufacturing defect. Toyota's manufacturer, Dana Holding Corp., failed to apply a vital anti-corrosion agent to the frames and undercarriages of millions of vehicles. If you own a Toyota 4Runner, model year 2005-2011, you may be eligible to file a Toyota 4Runner rust claim.
Vehicles are expected to be crashworthy for their entire lives, yet Toyota 4Runners have been found to develop significant and profound frame rust and corrosion. Toyota 4Runner frame rust makes these vehicles unstable and unsafe, putting drivers, passengers and other motorists at risk for accidents and injuries. If your vehicle has developed significant and unusual frame rust corrosion, you may qualify to file a 4Runner rust lawsuit against Toyota.
For persons who meet these qualifications, it is likely you will be eligible to file a Toyota 4Runner rust lawsuit. There are several reasons anyone who owns a defective Toyota 4Runner should consider filing a claim. First, Toyota 4Runner rust lawyers believe individuals who have suffered damages may be eligible for compensation for the Toyota 4Runner rust defect. More meaningful than that to some is the opportunity to hold a large corporation accountable for its flagrant disregard for consumer safety. Critics say Toyota has long since been aware of the Toyota 4Runner rust defect yet has left consumers in the dark and at significant risk.
