| Description of the problem | My frame is rotting from the inside out. The rear trailing arm mounts are welded to the frame and the frame rotted through from the inside out. The vehicle will not pass the required saftey inspection. I started looking for a way to repair/replace the frame and found that this is a common problem. The cost of repair will exceed the value of the vehicle. The date i have entered is the date the problem was found. |
