“Stopped for an oil change,was told that the sub frame was very rusted,mechanic suggested I call chrysler,he said this shouldn t be that rusted. Said that the 2007 models were being fixed by chrysler under the warranty. When I called chrysler the checked the VIN # and said it wasn't on the list. They didn't really have an answer for me. This is an expensive repair that I can't afford. Sus”
