The entire front end rusted out under the vehicle, even with routine car washes. The rest of the Vehicle looked flawless, even at 14 years old. Garage kept, because of this it made the vehicle very unsafe, could fall apart, or at the very least in a front facing accident it would not have held up. When the engine went in the vehicle (oil pump..go figure) The mechanic would not touch it because the rust was so bad. My options were to completely redo the front frame/supports, or to scrap the vehicle. The vehicle went to the vehicle cemetery
