problem #1

Nov 192011

Elantra 4-cyl

  • 123,000 miles
During the replacement of both axles, corrosion perforation was discovered in both of the lower control arms near the ball joints. More disturbing is the fist sized hole, rusted thru the main suspension cross member that the control arms are connected to (drivers side). The entire main crossmember will require replacement.
