| Description of the problem | Front sub frame rotted thru front end of car fell apart. No warning. Driving thru parking lot, thank god not on highway. Should not have rotted like that on 9 year old car someone could've been killed. Called jeep they refuse to pay for new subframe even though they cover 2007 subframes rotting. There should be a recall before people get killed. Costing us $1800. 00, could've been much worse. Disgusted. |
