“The subframe cracked under normal driving condition. The crack is located on the subframe where the rear control arm attached. I m afriad that the rear axle may fall off the vehicle during driving. I have found other owner complaint about this on the e36 design. This is a weaknes on the surframe that casues it to fail in fatigue. I am a metallurgical engineer and have visually inspected the crack. It did not shown any corrosion, thus indiciating that it is not a environmental induce failure. This problrem is a manufacture problem in an inadequately desgined component. …”
