Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On three occasions within the past twelve months, I have completely lost power steering while driving. The wheel becomes almost unmovable (I am a strong, adult male). On one of these occasions, the weather was damp and the engine also stalled. Fortunately I was able to muscle and coast the car onto the shoulder where I was able to restart the car and drive away. On the remaining two occasions I was driving at 65 MPH on the interstate when the power steering ceased to work. Terrifying and deadly. Latest event was may 9, 2018.”

The corroded area would cause a safety hazard if the corroded part of the frame broke all the way off as a result of hitting a large bump or perhaps a big pothole.
