On Tuesday 11/19/2024 I went to my car and saw that a lot of fluid had leaked out of it. I went to start my car and when the car came on the gas tank was empty, but I had just filled the tank up the day before and parked it. On Monday the 11/18/2024 I had put gas in the tank. So on Tuesday when I had to go to the store I was pretty confused that the tank was low. This same thing had happened one time before but it never occurred that there was any kind of leak. But for an entire tank of gas to spill out is extremely concerning.

The subframe is rotting prematurely and this issue is only present on the v8 equipped models. Cars in very good shape but the subframe is almost rotted totally through above the exhaust. Due to the poor layout of the exhaust which causes the paint on the welds to flake off and then the subframe begins to rust from the inside out.
