Consumer Description

MECHANIC SAID MY SUB-FRAME WAS SEVERELY RUSTED AND WILL VERY SOON BE UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS IT MAY BREAK WHILE DRIVING. WHY HAS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS ADDRESSED IN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 2007 MODELS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED FOR 2009? LOSS OF STEERING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHER DRIVERS.
