Last year i noticed rust that had become a gaping hole in the lower part- rear axle frame of my honda passport's . recently when i was driving real axle frame cracked with a loud noise. temporary welding is done . i checked with honda service, car body repair and local mechanic -no one assured that it can be fixed. and finally it makes the car impossible to sell. please help me on this. i am the third owner vin no: [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
My 1999 honda passport has a rear stabilizer bar holding the wheel in place that is welded onto the frame. the stabilizer bar has rusted off the frame (or "ripped" off the frame while i was driving), causing the wheel to become loose. this vehicle swerved all over the road until i got it stopped. the vehicle is un-drivable and was towed away. there were no warning signs of this going bad. i am still unsure what the fix would be, as it is the frame that is bad. *tr
