Consumer Description

AFTER HEARING AND FEELING A CRACKING SOUND AND THEN INSPECTING UNDER THE CAR, I NOTICED THAT THE SUBFRAME OF THE CAR WAS RUSTED THRU AND A VISIBLE SEPARATION OF THE SUBFRAME. THE POINT OF THE RUST THRU IS AT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR CORNER OF THE VEHICLE'S SUBFRAME. THE CAR IS AT THE MECHANIC'S BEING REPAIRED, HE STATED THE CAUSE IS THE DRAIN HOSE FOR CONDENSATION FROM THE AC AT THAT LOCATION. THIS CAR HAS BEEN AN EXCELLENT VEHICLE THROUGHOUT. THIS RUST THRU OF THE SUBFRAME COULD HAVE CAUSED A ACCIDENT. *TR
