Consumer Description

VEHICLE SUBFRAME (ENGINE CRADLE) IS ROTTED OUT AND VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS BUT ONLY FOR A 6 WEEK PERIOD FOR 2004 MODELS. LOOKING ONLINE I SEE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE 2005 PACIFICA. I HAVE PHOTOS. SUBFRAME IS ABOUT TO FALL APART AND THIS WILL CAUSE THE ENGINE TO DROP. THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. HOW MANY OWNERS LOOK UNDER THEIR CAR AT THE SUBFRAME? IT;S A HIDDEN DEFECT THAT WILL KILL SOMEONE ONE DAY. SUBFRAMES ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ROT AWAY AT THE 10 YEAR POINT. THIS IS A MAJOR MAJOR DEFECT. PLEASE LET ME SEND YOU PHOTOS.
