Typical suspension symptoms owners report
- Rear subframe (K-frame) rusts from the inside out and eventually breaks in half or in two pieces, often first noticed as a rattling or knocking sound from the rear.
- When the subframe fails, drivers report sudden loss of control, severe pulling to one side, uncontrollable swerving, or a wheel folding under the car while driving.
- Rust damage to the subframe is described as hidden from normal inspection, with some owners told by dealers or shops the vehicle is unsafe to drive once discovered.
- Some owners report the failure happening after hitting a pothole or bump, with the subframe cracking at that point.
- A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) warning light has also been reported illuminating without further explanation from the owner.
