“AT THE ANNUAL SAFETY INSPECTION IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE REAR FRAME HAS BEEN PERFORATED BY RUST. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM DUE TO HOW THE FRAME IS SHAPED WHERE THE SPARE TIRE ATTACHES. AN OTHERWISE MECHANICALLY SOUND AND SOLID VEHICLE IS NO LONGER DRIVEABLE.”

“TRUCK EXHIBITED A 'CLUNK' NOISE FROM LEFT REAR WHEN TRAVERSING A BUMP IN THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT NEW AND HAVE HAD ALL MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR WORK DONE. SERVICE MANAGER SAID NO REPAIR WAS POSSIBLE'FRAME RUST WAS SO BAD A NEW LEAF SPRING, ETC. COULD NOT BE ATTACHED AND IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. SEE ATTACHED INVOICE. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO MY HOME AND IT HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE. (DATE OF OCCURRENCE IS APPROXIMATE. IT BECAME WORSE AS TIME WENT ON AND OCCURS AT ANY SPEED.)”

“REAR SPRING HANGERS ROTTED AND FAILED AND BOTH SIDES OF FRAME RUSTED BAD..SPARE TIRE HOLDER RUSTED ROTTED AND BROKE LETTING SPARE TIRE AND REAR BUMPER TO DROP DOWN. I CAUGHT IT BEFORE IT MADE IT TO THE ROAD.WE WERE ON THE ROAD WHEN THE RIGHT HAND SIDE CAME DOWN.LEFT SIDE HAPPENED A YEAR BEFORE THE RIGHT SIDE[ESTIMATE].”

“FRAME HAS EXTENSIVE ROT RESULTING IN AN UNSTABLE HANDLING FEEL TO THE TRUCK WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THE LEAF SPRING MOUNTS ARE RUSTED THROUGH AND ABOUT TO FALL APART, I FEEL THE TRUCK IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE.”
