2001 CHEVROLET TRACKER Structureframe And Membersunderbody Shields Problems

MY FRONT SUSPENSION CROSSMEMBER COMPLETELY CORRODED AND CRACKED IN HALF MAKING MY CAR NOT DRIVABLE. I LOCATED THE SPECIAL COVERAGE PROGRAM ONLINE AS THIS APPEARED TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE. I AM THE 2ND OWNER. I PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM A WOMAN WHO RESIDES IN ASSISTED LIVING AND HAD BEEN IN ASSISTED LIVING SINCE THE SPECIAL COVERAGE NOTICE. AS SHE DID NOT HAVE A DRIVER'S LICENSE, THIS VEHICLE SAT IN HER GARAGE WITHOUT THE NEEDED REPAIR COVERED BY GM UNTIL HER FAMILY SOLD IT TO ME IN JUNE. AFTER A 90MIN CALL WITH A GM REP 10/20/14, I SPOKE WITH GM SUPVR [XXX] WHO ASSURED ME GM WOULD COVER COST TO TOW TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS COVER THE REPAIR. HE LEFT A VMAIL FOR THE DEALER BUT DID NOT SPECIFY THIS OFFER. I LEFT 5 UNRETURNED VMAILS FOR [XXX] UNTIL I SPOKE WITH SUPVR [XXX] 10/22/14. [XXX]...

THE ENTIRE UNDERCARRIAGE HAS ROTTED, INCLUDING THE BRAKE LINES, OIL LINES AND ANTIFREEZE COOLANT LINES. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS NORMAL FOR ANY CAR, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS 12 YEARS OLD. IT WAS HAPPENING TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER BUT HE WAS RELUCTANT TO REPORT IT...I AM NOT. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR ONLY FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS NOW. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE SOME OF THE COOLANT LINES AND SOME OF THE BRAKE LINES. NOW THE OIL LINES ARE LEAKING HEAVILY AND I AM GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE THEM REPLACED AS WELL. ALSO, THE PREVIOUS OWNER SAID THAT WHEN A PASSENGER TRIED TO USE THE SEAT BELT IT COMPLETELY LOCKED UP ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL TO HAVE A PASSENGER RIDE WITHOUT A SEAT BELT. I FEEL THAT THE CAR...

2001 CHEVY TRACKER WITH RUSTED FRONT CROSS MEMBER. THE CROSS MEMBER RUSTED AND BROKE LEAVING THE LOWER A ARM DISCONNECT FROM THE FRAME ON ONE END. THIS CAUSES AN UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKE AND TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I CONTACTED A CHEVY DEALER AND ALSO GENERAL MOTORS AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THE SPECIAL COVERAGE OFFER HAD EXPIRED. THE SPECIAL COVERAGE WAS FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. MY TRACKER HAS 59,450 MILES BUT WAS REJECTED BECAUSE OF A TIME LIMIT. I WAS NEVER SENT A NOTICE BECAUSE I WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND DIDN'T BUY IT FROM A GM DEALER. GM COULD HAVE QUERIED EACH STATE'S REGISTRATION DATABASES FOR OWNERSHIP. I WAS TOLD BY GM THAT I COULD HAVE BROUGHT IT IN AND HAD IT INSPECTED. HOW WOULD I HAVE KNOWN TO BRING IT IN...

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHEVROLET TRACKER. WHILE DRIVING A LOUD BUMP WAS HEARD, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE LEFT. THE REPAIR SHOP STATED THAT THE CROSS MEMBERS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WERE SEVERED. THE VIN, ENGINE SIZE AND SPEED WERE UNKNOWN BUT WILL BE ADDED TO THE HARDCOPY. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 144,000.
