    This one has been bugging me since I first logged in to the Toyota Owners' website...

    10/16/15 ...REPLACE CENTER PIPE, FUEL TANK, AND FRONT CROSSMEMBER....

    Why would anyone do that? My only guess is that someone ran over something huge in the roadway.

    Any other guesses?

    That sounds like end-to-end damage?

    U may not have to guess. Call the dealership, tell them u recently purchased the car, and were curious about an entry on the carfax at their dealership. They run vin and may have some notes or further intel.

    I've done this many times because sometimes it will just say "vehicle serviced" on car fax and list a particular shop.

    that was an EXPEN$IVE repair! Obviously ran over something, ditched it or a shop lowered it onto another vehicle ;)
