I took my 2000 Hyundai Elantra gls in for an alignment. The alignment could not be performed I was told and shown because the vehicles rear sub frame has multiple holes, is weak and needs to be replaced. I was told that the vehicle is unsafe to drive and will not pass the next Maine inspection. I was told that for the work to be done it would cost over $2,000 dollars. The drivers side rear sub frame has a very large hole.
