1 Underbody Shield problem of the 2003 Mazda Protege

Failure Date: 12/31/2013

Passenger side inner fender where the strut is mounted is getting rusted badly making the car unsafe to drive. Car runs fine but I can push with the finger from the wheel side and see the body move. If car goes over a pot hole it might make the strut fall off and cause a major accident. This is structure issue. I cant replace anything. Mazda should buy it back just like Nissan did on their pathfinder.
