AFTER RELOCATING TO DALY CITY, CA. 94015 ( PACIFIC COAST AREA ) ABOUT A 1.5 YEAR AGO. I NOTICED THE FRAME OF MY 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA STARTED TO EXHIBIT SOME CORROSION THROUGHOUT. UPON SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, TOYOTA HAS INITIATED A LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN "E0D" IN THE FOLLOWING STATES: CT DE IL IN KY MA MD ME MI MN NH NJ NY OH PA RI VA VT WI WV & D.C. TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. FOR 05-08 TACOMA VEHICLES OPERATED IN SPECIFIC COLD CLIMATE AREAS WITH HIGH ROAD SALT USE, MAY EXHIBIT MORE THAN NORMAL CORROSION TO THE FRAME. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WILL INSPECT THE FRAME. IF SIGNIFICANT RUST PERFORATION IS NOT FOUND*, CORROSION-RESISTANT COMPOUNDS (CRC) WILL BE APPLIED TO KEY AREAS OF THE FRAME. IF AN AUTHORIZED DEALER CONFIRMS THE FRAME HAS SIGNIFICANT RUST PERFORATION*, AN APPROPRIATE REMEDY WILL BE PROVIDED. THE PROBLEM IS QUESTION HERE SHOULDN'T ONLY BE ADDRESSED TO VEHICLES LOCATED IN THE STATES ABOVE, BUT A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD APPLY TO ALL 2005-2008 MODELS AFFECTED NATIONWIDE. PACIFIC COAST AREAS MAY NOT EXPERIENCE HIGH ROAD SALT USAGE, BUT THERE ARE OTHER CLIMATE ELEMENTS LIKE SALT MOISTURE FROM THE PACIFIC OCEAN THAT CAN ALSO ACCELERATE CORROSION IN METAL FRAMES IF IT'S NOT WELL DESIGNED OR COATED. THIS ISSUE AFFECTS THE CORE OF THE VEHICLE FRAME AND ITS INTEGRITY DURING NORMAL OPERATION AND IN AN EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. IF TOYOTA BELIEVES THEIR 05-08 TACOMA MODELS ARE HAVING CORROSION ISSUES IN THE ABOVE STATES, WHY IT'S NOT A PROBLEM FOR THOSE LIVING CLOSE TO COASTAL AREAS WITH HIGH SALT MOISTURE LIKE DALY CITY, SAN FRANCISCO, PACIFIC, HALF NOON BAY AND CITIES IN PROXIMITY TO THE COAST. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO REVIEW MY CONCERNS. *TR
