“2005 chevy Colorado rusted frame next to rear cab mounts on both sides. Frame is cracking in this location. This appears to be the result of rusting from the inside out because the rest of frame looks to be in good condition. Still has paint on it. 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”
