Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING TO WORK ONE MORNING DOING ABOUT 35MPH, AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE REAR END OF THE RODEO SWERVED ALMOST HITTING A CAR IN THE ONCOMING LANE. CAME TO A STOP AND AGAIN REAR END FELT STRANGE. GOT TO WORK AND LOOKED IT OVER. DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING STILL LITTLE DARK OUT. CALLED MY MECHANIC HE SAID CHECK THE FRAME. SURE ENOUGH THE REAR TRAILING BAR BROKE FREE FROM THE FRAME. MY MECHANIC IS A PROFESSIONAL WELDER HE SAID BRING IT OVER HE WOULD LOOK AT IT. HAD TO TOW IT TO GARAGE WHERE HE RAISED IT ON A RACK. THE WHOLE FRAME HAD ALL KINDS OF ROT IN VARIOUS PLACE. RODEO IS NOW JUNK. ONLY HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT. LOOKS GREAT ON THE OUTSIDE. BUT ITS ONLY SKIN DEEP!!! THE DAY BEFORE THIS HAPPENED I HAD MY DAUGHTER AND HER FRIENDS ON THE PA TURNPIKE DOING 55 MPH WITH NO IDEA WE COULD HAVE ALL BEEN KILLED. *TR
