Consumer Description

NOTICED A LARGE PIECE OF SOMETHING HANGING FROM UNDERCARRIAGE. TOOK TO BODY SHOP WHO STATED BOTH DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDES ARE SEVERELY RUSTED WITH MULTIPLE HOLES UP TO 6 INCHES TOTALLY THROUGH TO CARPET AND INTERIOR. CONSIDERED A SAFETY RISK DUE TO EXPOSURE OF FUMES/GASES FROM ENGINE/EXHAUST AS WELL AS THE RISK OF "FALLING THROUGH". REST OF CAR LOOKS GOOD NO VISIBLE RUST ON FRAME OR REAR. NO HISTORY OF COLLISIONS OR IMPACT DAMAGE. WE ARE NOT IN AN AREA OF GREAT ROAD SALT NEED NOR NEAR AN OCEAN. ESTIMATE TO REPAIR OVER $1000. ADVISED NOT SAFE TO DRIVE OR SELL AS IS. NOTICED IN COMPLAINTS, THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE AT LEAST 2010. WHY HAS A RECALL NOT BEEN ISSUED?
