| Recall part defective in 1993 toyota t 100 .. we had our head gasket replaced during the recall and 40,000 miles later our truck is completely disabled due to this same problem! it is a very costly repair for a part that i see by doing a search online is being reported as having many repeat occurrences with consumers. my vehicle is worth over $5000 at least if it ran that is. the repair by the dealership has been denied and contacting the manufacturer has been useless. both basically say its my problem but i feel its not since people who purchased toyota trucks known to have problem are still stuck with this major defect on a part that should last the life of your vehicle. *jb | |||
