NHTSA Complaint #11196966 — 2017 RAM 1500

I WAS INVOLVED IN A WRECK BACK ON FEB 20TH OF 2019.THAT IMPACTED THE LOWER REAR C-POST OF MY TRUCK. JUST LAST WEEK AS THE BODY SHOP WAS BEGINNING PREPARATIONS TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE SIDE OF MY 2017 RAM 1500. WHEN THEY CUT OFF THE A/B-POSTS THEY NOTICED THE TRUCK HAD SURFACE RUST IN THE INNER STRUCTURE OF BOTH. RUST THAT SHOULD NOT BE IN THERE. THE C-POST AND ROCKER PANELS WERE COATED ON THE INSIDE BUT NOT THE OTHER TWO. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES ALTHOUGH THEY ARE NOT AS GOOD AS ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THE ISSUE IN PERSON. THEY ARE REPLACING THAT BUT MAKES ME CONCERNED ABOUT OTHER RAMS AND HONESTLY THE OTHER SIDE OF MY TRUCK. A LOT OF THINGS CAN RUST ON A TRUCK AND YOU WOULD STILL BE CONSIDERED SAFE. THE A/B-POST IS NOT ON THAT LIST IN MY OPINION.
