Consumer Description

FRAME CROSS MEMBER BEHIND THE CAB IS RUSTED THROUGH. I HAVE OWNED VEHICLES IN "SALT" STATES AND NOT HAD THE FRAME RUST OUT. THIS SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A "WEAR ITEM". THIS CAN LEAD TO A FAILURE WHEREBY THE FUEL TANK FALLS DOWN LEADING TO A HIGH RISK OF FIRE. THIS WAS FOUND DURING A REPLACEMENT OF THE BRAKE LINE (3RD SET) ASSEMBLY AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUCK BED.
