NHTSA complaint #11399376, filed 2021-03, 45,000 miles“2005 chevy Colorado rusted frame next to rear cab mounts on both sides. Frame is cracking in this location.

I think this is a weak spot in the frame due to a structural engineering issue. I have found many other people complaining of the same problem with there chevy Colorado's”
