I heard the buy back/rust warranty was only for 1995 -2000 Tacomas. In 2001 a different process/manufacturer made the frames.

I finally settled with Toyota on my 2001 Tacoma...I received 100% book value ...no incentives to buy another Toyota ...So I just picked up my Chevy ..goodbye toyota!!
This whole process took 4 months!

The agent said that there as many 2001's failing as the earlier models..they are built on the same frame

I accepted the offer of $15,400 + $1,000 new Toyota credit for my 2001 4cyl. 4x4 extended cab SR5 with automatic and approximately 40,000 mi. Other than one set of tires, I had done nothing to it but oil changes. Truck was smoked in, never waxed, not garaged, had a bent rear bumper, and numerous dings & scrapes.
 
Process took about 7 weeks start to finish, and I am happy with this deal and my new '08 Access Cab.

I received my letter regarding my 1997 Tacoma x-tra cab and upon inspection, I was told I qualify for the buyback. I had typical rust but no hole and within 2 weeks received a check for 12K

"I heard the buy back/rust warranty was only for 1995 -2000 Tacomas. In 2001 a different process/manufacturer made the frames."
 
My truck was gone and I had a check in my hand in 30 days.
 
Now, I am thinking that your 2001 might have been manufactured in 2000. If that is the case you can argue over the KBB price. As it states 1995-2000 yrs.
 
Just because your title is saying 2001 does not mean it is not part of the recall. Look at your manufacturer date on your Taco's and see the date.
 
And having had the experience of a Toyota rep on the phone because we sandblasted rust off my truck last Oct and painted the whole frame and then lost my truck to holes, well.... I had quite an experience.
 
And no, I did not buy a Toyota. I went and bought a 2008 Hyundai Elantra with a PZEV emissions. I could not afford a truck again even with the $1000 certificate...Toyota raised all their prices even on used. Hello to better mileage.... I am very glad I didn't go back to Toyota. The Dealer I bought from and the service Dept. is soooo much nicer then the Toyota Dealers.

Heywood1, how did you get the 2001 covered? I called and gave toyota my serial number and they told me that my 2001 is not covered. It was built in 2000.
