Car was inspected at mechanic during a routine oil change. Mechanic stated that the frame was rusted, which could affect the ability to safely operate the vehicle. I did a search and discovered that similar damage was noted in a recall 09-01-020 dated July 2009. Unfortunately, my vehicle was not included in the recall due to the manufacture date, but the same problem as the ones included in the recall exists.

THERE IS VISIBLE RUST/CORROSION DAMAGE OF THE FRONT SUB- FRAME OF MY VEHICLE. THE FRONT SUBFRAME HAS THINNED AT RUSTED LOCATION. THE RUSTED SUB-FRAME IS CHEWED HALF OF MY SUB-FRAME. I AM WORRIED THAT CORROSION MAY PROGRESS AND MAY DETACH FROM THE SUB-FRAME, EVENTUALLY INCREASING SAFETY RISK. I HAVE NOTICED STEERING PULL.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR DOWNHILL, APPROACHING A STOP SIGN. MY SUBFRAME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR SNAPPED. THE FRONT PASSENGER SUBFRAME WAS RUSTED, AND BROKE. THIS CAUSED THE WHEEL TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE WHEEL WELL, AND MADE IT VERY HARD TO STOP. I WAS LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION, WITH NEAR INABILITY TO MOVE THE CAR AFTER I FINALLY CAME TO A STOP BY HAVING TO USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE. ATTACHED IS A PICTURE OF THE SUBFRAME THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT, BEFORE IT BROKE. I DO NOT HAVE ONE OF IT BROKEN.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN 2011 AND WAS TOLD ENTIRE SEAT HAD TO BE REMOVED TO STOP LIGHT. COULD NOT AFFORD THE COST. RETURNED TO DEALER AGAIN IN 2014 AS HAD READ CONNECTOR UNDER SEAT MIGHT BE DISCONNECTED WHICH COULD BE CAUSING THE PROBLEM AND DEALER FOUND THIS TO BE TRUE AND SECURED THE CONNECTED AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT; HOWEVER, WITHIN FEW WEEKS, LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND HAS REMAINED ON SINCE. I DID NOT ASK THE DEALER ABOUT IT AGAIN, KNOWING I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A MAJOR TAKE-OUT OF THE SEAT TO CORRECT. OVERALL, THE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THE LIGHT CAME ON BEFORE MILEAGE WAS 51,131 AND MILEAGE IS CURRENTLY 83,486. I COVER THE LIGHT WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE AS IT DISTURBS ME THAT I CAN'T GET IT EASILY FIXED. I DOUBT IF THE AIRBAGS WORK BUT DON'T KNOW FOR SURE AND PROBABLY WON'T UNLESS I HAVE AN ACCIDENT OR A RECALL IS MADE FOR THE DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
