Description of the problem | 2004 lexus gx 470. Has frame rot due to the condinsation hose released on top of the passanger side frame. It runs down the passanger side frame and put holes in it due to inproper placement. Now the passanger side door is slighly out of alignment when closed. I have had to wrapp steel around the frame. From front door to front of back wheel. Contacted lexus at 1800-255-3987 in plano texas for case number [xxx]. Then said only a minor warranty for corresion and it is not covered. Also the person on the phone refused to give me toyota headquarters mailing address. This rust is on top of the frame and i believe would take 10-15 years to show up. There is now many holes in only the passanger side frame. Here are pictures picture 6100 shows the hose over the frame. Is it possiable the car could brake when driving. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). *tt |
