What owners report

  • Severe rust to vehicle frame COMMON TO THIS VEHICLE, no accident. Rust has corroded frame despite normal use and normal care. Vehicle hasn't reached 75k miles yet, and the frame is failing. How is this not a recall?

  • Front subframe is rusted out with visible holes. Manufacturer only extended warranty and did not issue recall. I just found out and tried to get it repaired but extended warranty is expired and they will not cover costs. Tons of owners complaining about this as it is listed as front and rear…
