Consumer Description

CORROSION RELATED STEERING ISSUES. THE FRAME OF THE CAR HAS RUSTED OUT WHERE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE CONNECTS TO THE FRAME. WHILE COMING TO A QUICK STOP THE ABS KICKED IN AND THE CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT WITH A POPPING SOUND. THE CAR WOULD RANDOMLY PULL TO ONE SIDE WHEN DRIVING RESUMED. TOOK THE CAR IN FOR NEW BRAKES AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRAME HAS RUSTED OUT. FINDING OTHER LIKE CONCERNS I TOOK THE CAR TO MAZDA WITH NO COMMUNICATION REGARDING THE STATUS OF MY VEHICLE.
