Was having my tires changed when mechanic noticed a significant amount of rot on the frame on the right side rear where the arm connects to the frame. High potential for the arm to pull out of frame which could cause a loss of control of the vehicle. Car started rusting around fenders and rockers 4 years ago. This frame rot is a structural integrity issue. Contacted kia and said that due to mileage and year that it was not their issue regardless of the 3 previous claims I found on the NHTSA site and the fact that it is a manufactures defect.
