IN SEPTEMBER 2014 A RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED ON MY STYLE 2009 TOYOTA TACOMA PICK UP BECAUSE THE REAR LEAF SPRINGS COULD CORRODE AND BREAK.

I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA MANUFACTURING COMPANY ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS ONLY TO BE TOLD "WE ARE WORKING ON IT" (REPLACING THE SPRINGS). THAT IS THE ONLY ANSWER I HAVE EVER RECEIVED. EVEN THEIR WEBSITE STATES "WE ARE WORKING ON IT". I WANT TO KNOW WHEN THESE SPRINGS WILL BE REPLACED ON MY VEHICLE!!!
