Consumer Description

RUSTED OUT SUB-FRAME. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR A YEAR, IT'S HAD ALL OF IT'S SERVICING DONE PRIOR AT DODGE DEALERS AND NO MENTION OF RUSTED OUT SUB-FRAME. WAS DRIVING THIS MORNING WHEN MY TIRE SEIZED THEN STARTED TO WOBBLE WHILE IN 45MPH TRAFFIC ON A DIVIDED HIGHWAY. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF AND PARK BEFORE GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT! IT'S NOW SITTING AT MY MECHANIC'S SHOP WAITING ON AN INVESTIGATION AND PRICING. THIS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC'S KNOWLEDGE! THIS SUB-FRAME RUSTING OUT THIS QUICKLY IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE! I'M COLLECTING PICTURES AND STATEMENTS FROM MY MECHANIC AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER AND WILL CONTACT THE PRESS IF I HAVE TO!!
