LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN K0D (Remedy Notice)
Certain 2011 - 2017 Model Year Tacoma
Frame Corrosion Resistant Compound (CRC) Application
Model / Years
2011 – 2017 Tacoma

Production Period
Late June 2010 – Early June 2017

Approximate Total Vehicles
302,470

Condition
Toyota has received reports regarding frame corrosion perforation on 2011 – 2017 model year Tacoma vehicles.
In these reports, customers have indicated that vehicles operated in specific cold climate areas with high road
salt usage may exhibit more-than-normal corrosion to the vehicle’s frame. This condition is unrelated to and
separate from normal surface rust which is commonly found on metallic surfaces after some years of usage
and/or exposure to the environment.
Remedy
Any authorized Toyota dealer in the Cold Climate States (CCS)1 will first inspect the condition of the vehicle’s
frame under associated Customer Support Program (CSP) ZKA. Based upon the results and date of the
inspection, the dealership will do one of the following:
• If qualifying rust perforation is not found, and the vehicle is located in a Cold Climate State, the
dealer will apply Corrosion Resistant Compound (CRC) and/or install frame plugs to key areas of
the vehicle’s frame FREE OF CHARGE to the owner under Limited Service Campaign (LSC) K0D.
• If qualifying rust perforation is not found, and the vehicle is not located in a Cold Climate State, no
further action is required.
• If significant rust perforation is found, the dealer will replace the vehicle’s frame FREE OF CHARGE
to the owner under Customer Support Program ZKA if all conditions of the program are met.

Note: If a vehicle is eligible to receive the CRC application under LSC K0D, but the remedy is not performed
before the expiration of LSC K0D, the vehicle will not be eligible for frame replacement coverage under CSP
ZKA.

Covered Vehicles
There are approximately 302,470 vehicles covered by this Limited Service Campaign.
Owner Letter Mailing Date
Toyota will begin to notify owners in launched regions shortly after launch. Mailings will be consistent with
the phased launch schedule outlined above. A sample of the owner notification letter has been included for
your reference.
Toyota makes significant effort to obtain current customer name and address information from each state
through industry resources when mailing owner letters. In the event your dealership receives a notice for a
vehicle that was sold prior to the Limited Service Campaign announcement, it is the dealership’s responsibility
to forward the owner letter to the customer who purchased the vehicle.

Limited Service Campaign K0D - D - Page |3

Please note that only owners of the covered vehicles will be notified. If you are contacted by an owner who
has not yet received a notification, please verify eligibility by confirming through TIS prior to performing repairs.
Dealers should perform the repair as outlined in the Technical Instructions found on TIS.

Dealer Inventory Procedures
New and Used Vehicles in Dealership Inventory (In-Stock Vehicles)
To ensure customer satisfaction, Toyota requests that dealers complete this Limited Service Campaign on any
new or used vehicles currently in dealer inventory that are covered by this Limited Service Campaign prior to
customer delivery. However, if the campaign cannot be completed (for example, due to remedy parts
availability), delivery of a covered vehicle is acceptable if disclosed to the customer that the vehicle is involved
in a Limited Service Campaign.
Toyota expects dealers to use the attached Customer Contact and Vehicle Disclosure Form to obtain vehicle
buyer information. Dealers are expected to provide a copy of the completed form, along with the most current
FAQ, to the vehicle buyer. Toyota and the dealer may use this information to contact the customer when the
remedy becomes available.
Keep the completed form on file at the dealership and send a copy to [email protected]. In
the subject line of the email, state “Disclosure Form K0D” and include the VIN.
NOTE: Dealers can identify if any of their new and used inventory has any open campaigns in the Vehicle
Inventory Summary available in Dealer Daily (https://dealerdaily.toyota.com/). The Vehicle Inventory
Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate information for newly launched campaigns.
Toyota Certified Used Vehicle (TCUV)
The TCUV policy prohibits the certification of any vehicle with an outstanding Safety Recall, Special Service
Campaign, or Limited Service Campaign. Thus, no affected units are to be designated, sold, or delivered as
a TCUV until all applicable Safety Recalls, Special Service Campaigns, and Limited Service Campaigns have
been completed on that vehicle.

Customer Handling, Parts Ordering, and Remedy Procedures

Customers who receive the owner letter may contact your dealership with questions regarding the letter
and/or the Limited Service Campaign. Please welcome them to your dealership and answer any questions
that they may have. A Q&A is provided to assure a consistent message is communicated.
Customers with additional questions or concerns are asked to please contact the Toyota Customer Experience
Center (1-888-270-9371) - Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Saturday 7:00 am to 4:30 pm Central

Parts Ordering Process – Non-SET and GST Parts Ordering Process
It is possible that parts for this campaign are either required to be ordered in Campaign Part Order Request
(CPOR) on Service Lane or have been placed on Manual Allocation Control (MAC) due to potential limited
part availability. Please check the CPOR/MAC report on Dealer Daily for the most up-to-date parts ordering
information.
All Safety Recall, Service Campaign (SSC/LSC) parts are eligible for the Monthly Parts Return Program. Please
refer to PANT Bulletin 2011-087 for campaign parts that are currently returnable under the Monthly Parts
Return Program and for additional details.
To assist dealers in determining the correct part numbers to order, as well as required remedy, a website has
been developed. Please go to https://tacoma-2011-2017-frames.imagespm.info/. The website will guide you
through the inspection results and determine the parts needed for the required repair, depending on your
region’s location and K0D launch status. The website is for part(s) application reference only and the website

will not order the parts, confirm campaign completion status, or confirm campaign applicability.
Note: When first logging in, enter your dealer code and the default password (XXXXX). Upon logging in, the
website will ask for you to reset the password and provide an e-mail address.
