STRUCTURE

At a glance

What can fail

Road salt accumulates inside the rear section of the subframe side members, causing internal corrosion that thins or perforates the steel. This can weaken the mounting point where the lower control arm attaches, potentially causing separation.

What the fix does

The dealer will inspect the front subframe and replace it if necessary. If it doesn't need replacement, drainage holes will be added and rust-proofing material applied to stop corrosion.
