Description of the problem	I own a 2004 ford heritage 4x4 and the frame is literally rusting away on or about the 10th of march the bracket that holds the rear driver side leaf spring rotted away and punched through the bottom of my bed. I was only going 30 when it happened so everyone was safe. I also had to replace the trailer hitch last year because the frame was so rotted away. I stopped at a stop sign and when i went to go i saw my trailer just go up and slam back down on the ground. Luckily i was not going 65 mph otherwise i would have had a accident. The back of the frame now is paper thin. Ford should do a recall on these frames. I have owned many ford and never had rust this bad.
