My son was driving this car and heard the engine making unusual noise and a clunking noise. I took the car to a mechanic to have it checked out and found out the front sub frame is completely rusted out. The front motor mount isn't attached to anything. The motor isn't supported up front. He told me the car is not safe to drive. I can't believe there isn't a recall on something so dangerous. I'm filing this report in case I have to take legal action at a later date.
