Description of the problem	Front crossmember is completely rotted out. Chrysler extended the warranty for this to 10 years to include inspections rather than recall to correct this problem. Since i bought this jeep used i was not informed this could be a problem or that i was entitled to inspections to look for this problem. I originally thought this was a control arm issue but when the vehicle was put on the hoist, looking at it from below, the front crossmember has nearly completely rusted out. No other parts of the underside of the vehicle have experienced this extent corrosion damage. This is clearly a defect in materials of construction or choice of surface coating for this part. This is an extremely dangerous condition which consumers may be completely unaware of, unless they were the original purchaser. Dealership service department said they had a customer make it to the dealership for the same problem just to have the crossmember give way, dropping the the engine onto the ground in the parking lot. Unbelievable! I wish i had photos from when i originally had it on the hoist, but i didn't get them. It is at the dealership now. Chrysler initially said they would try to offer some "good will" but have since rejected this due to the $2350. 00 estimate for repair. No wonder they weren't recalled. Shame on you chrysler!
