DROVE TRUCK TO WORK. UPON PARKING NOTICED GASOLINE POURING OUT FROM UNDER VEHICLE. HAD TRUCK TOWED TO DEALER WHERE I WAS INFORMED THAT THE COMPONENT GOING INTO THE GAS TANK HAD RUSTED THROUGH. THIS TRUCK HAS HAD VERY LIMITED EXPOSURE TO SALT HERE IN TENNESSEE. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW. ALSO I RECENTLY HAD TO REPLACE BOTH THE FRONT ROTORS DUE TO RUSTING. I FEEL THIS PRESENTS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD AND THAT TOYOTA SHOULD USE BETTER MATERIALS IN THEIR GAS LINES.*AK
