Body problems of the 2002 Honda Passport

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Passport. The contact stated the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for an unrelated repair when they noticed that the entire frame was completely rusted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 103,000.

I purchased a 2002 Honda Passport used, I recently heard a noise under the car and when checked part of the frame was broken. I looked online and found a recall, never notified about it. I called a dealer and waited 5 days and called them again and they set up an appointment for me. I took the vehicle in and was told that it is unsafe to drive and they will not release it to me. They said that is is not the tracking link that is the problem, it is the frame. This vehicle should be recalled for the frame rotting not just the tracking links. Honda is very unprofessional and this is a serious problem.

The recall covers suvs in connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, kentucky, maine, maryland, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, west virginia and wisconsin. I took my truck to Honda cause the chassis looks and feel really bad but the spare some black paint and told me its fine to drive but I dont really feel safe driving my truck cause it feels like a problem waiting to happen .
