Took vehicle for state inspection. Vehicle failed inspection due to frame being rusted. Mechanic/inspector states that this is very common on the 1998 Chevrolet Cavalier. There are mfg. Frame holes that the subframe is rusting near the rear wheels. Suggested that could have a body shop weld plates over the mfg holes in the frame.

I was stopped at red light and when the light turned green I took off and felt a pull to the passenger side. I had my brother in law check it out and the sub-frame was rotted. We replaced it but feel this needed to be brought to your attention.
