The frame has rusted through in the rear of the vehicle causing the leaf spring in the back to fall down. My rear end is no longer held in place and can fall out from the rear of the vehicle. My car is no longer drivable. It's a 97 Honda Passport. Other wise my vehicle is in excellent condition inside and out which makes me sick to know that the frame is gone.
