My 1998 SR5 T100 has a 188000 miles the frame is rotted and the oil pan, the a/c has been repaired 5 times steering rods and clutch problems and Toyota not making good on a recall on the rotted frames of the T100s has made it my last Toyota vehicle that i will ever purchase.

Do you drive a 1998 TOYOTA T100?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
