Consumer Description

FRONT SUB-FRAME RUSTED CAUSING LOWER SUSPENSION / CONTROL ARM TO COME APART, LEAVING FRONT WHEEL TO BE UNSTABLE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING, ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENT DO TO INSTABILITY IN STARING SYSTEM. I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL, HOWEVER FOR SOME REASON MY VIN DOESN'T SHOW THE RECALL. IS THIS SOMETHING THAT THE COMPANY IS PLANNING TO ADDRESS, OR AM A STUCK WITH THE PROBLEM? PICTURES INCLUDED.
