| Description of the problem | My front/rear crossmembers are rusted badly and sway bar rusted off. I bought this from a private seller in end of 2016,i was just informed from mienieke about the issue and that there is a 10 year recall on this. I went to dealership and they said recall warranty exp may 2018. I was never informed in a timely manner about the recall to get it fixed. This is my only car from my two children and myself.
