The frame of the vehicle is rusting away. There is a hole in the floor board on passenger side, from underneath the vehicle from rust. You can feel around the frame of the car and chunks of metal fall off . This was noticed during maintenance on the vehicle . Car was stationary , i had noticed that i was getting an extreme amount of dust inside the vehicle.

My vehicle was in a front collision at 35mph. The driver was the only occupant in the vehicle at the time of the accident. The passenger airbag deployed there was no one sitting in that seat. The driver airbag did not deploy.

Car was stalling 2 days ago shut it off and drove away just fine not even 4 hours later my fiance was driving the car home he came up around a hill /bend on a city street the car locked up on him along with the oiil brake and battery light the breaks wouldn't do anything car wouldn't stop he ended up going head on into a tree in the neighbors yard. Car is completely totalled. There was a malfunction in the car somewhere and i believe the security of the car or the ecm is what locked it up on him there was no steering in the car as well. No recalls pop up with my vin # but i am suspected to believe there was something wrong internally. It was at 240,700 miles.He was expectidly only going 30 miles an hour but with the pictures im attaching it seems like the computer toom over the speed control

Engine stalls during driving. This happens almost everyday. Cam shaft sensor replaced several times.

The sound packaging was peeling ; yet truly the floor boards on driverside and front pasenger have completely rusted off!! So dangerous! And i have horrible allergies and the carpet is full of dust and mildew.
