The power steering line on the under side of the car that runs by the frame of the car rotted away and caused a power steering failure. About one month after having this repaired I received a recall letter that the frame needed to be inspected due to corrosion. I asked about the power steering line being part of this and was told no. This power steering line runs right along the side of the part of the frame that was inspected and sprayed for the recall, how can this power steering line not be covefred by the recall?.
