Consumer Description
The right rear control arm mount completely rusted away from the frame. Causing it to start fish-tailing out of control. Also there are other mounts that have rusted through. Like for instance, the gas tank strap mounted to the frame. There are also more areas of the frame that are rusting through. I'm just glad that I was the only one in the vehicle and going slow enough to not cause an accident. I then took it to an auto repair shop and they informed me that the frame on my vehicle has many problem areas of being rusted through. I have attached some photos of the problem areas taken from the repair shop.
