The subframe / engine cradle of my 20008 dodge avenger is totally rusted out with big holes in it. It's so brittle you can easily put a screw driver through what's left. This was discovered by belle tire when I was getting my tires rotated. I am the original owner since it was new. This car was brought for an oil change and inspection every 3,000 miles since new at golling chrysler dodge jeep ram bloomfield hills, mi. The car was also purchased from this same dealership.

Takata recall I bought a 2008 dodge avenger. When driving on the highway home I noticed that the rear of the car was swaying back and forth it was very hard to keep it on the road took it to the machanic that, balanced the tires and did an in-linement didn't help so replaced the struts on the rear and the front didn't help so replaced the sway bar and the machanic still couldn't find anything wrong with any of the parts replaced wheel barrons and still didn't help were have spent so much money and nothing helps.. I'm afraid to drive this car but I'm stuck with it, I took it to another machanic yesterday and 4 men there took hours trying everything to find what could be causing the problem with no luck, until one decided to look on line and he printed off numerous of complaints of other people with the same issues they tried all the things I have and like me spent way too much money and got no results. I'm asking that your company will find out what's causing the issues and repair this because I fear that this car isn't safe to be driven

I got into my car to leave and the gear shift would not come out of park. I tried several times and it was just stuck. My daughter went online and found that this had been a recall issue an I have never received any type of notification at all. My son found a work around on the internet that allowed me to get to work, however this is a issue that needs to be fixed.
