1 Underbody Shield problem

Failure Date: 11/03/2011

The steering was not performing correctly which made the car unstable and scary to drive so I took it to a mechanic to find out the problem. I was advised the subframe had rusted all the way through and needed to be replaced. They told me all that held the subframe together was some rusty parts. This could have caused a bad crash if it had failed on the highway. I know I live in an area that they salt the roads but there is no reason a 9 year old car should have a subframe that has failed.
