Description of the problem | I have recently went to a garage for a simple oil change and to see if i could install a hitch kit. Come to find out the frame itself is rotting internally to externally. This stirred up some concern because i need an inspection come june of this year and it will not pass inspection due to the rot. My chevy equinox is only a 2012. Being that i've only personally had this vehicle for a year, and it is only 8 to 9 years old, i was informed that this kind of rot that exists is bad. I found this out just this past week. |
