Description of the problem	Today i took my car to the dealership for a recall on the rear cross member. I also wanted to pay for a four wheel alignment at my own cost. I dropped my car off this morning only to be called a couple hours later. The gentleman stated that he couldn't do an alignment on the front tires because "the front subframe is rotted around the control arm mounting points." he said that my car was "very unsafe" and that i really shouldn't drive it. My ride had left and i was 40 minutes from home. I had no choice. Thankfully, i made it home safely and now it's parked for awhile. But after some research i saw that 2001-2004 hyundai sonata were recalled for the front subframe rotting away. Not only that, i saw many cases of owners of 2006 hyundai sonata with the same problem that i am having. He told me that the cost to repair would be over $1,300. Oh my. So, many other 2006 hyundai sonata owners are having the same problem with the front subframe rotting and rusting out. I really feel like something should be done about this.
