Troubling News
I noticed what appeared to be a crack in my subframe last weekend, at 2,700 miles. I was just about finished up with my insert install. Well, I looked again yesterday and it has gotten slightly worse. I couldn't maneuver my phone up into a spot to get a shot sadly. When it is out on the techs toolbox I will be able to though. Taking it in Monday afternoon to have it looked at, and parts ordered. Not too bad of a job, but still, new car. My time at the dealer has strengthened my resolved thankfully. Not too much boohoo-ing lol.
Best way to describe location is the top edge of the bushing sleeve, on what appears to be a seam in the sleeve itself. There is a seam on the exact opposite end, on the bottom of the subframe facing down. If it was there it would stand out much easier. It wasn't into the weld that day, now it is. Being the spot it is, aggressive driving would promote further cracking. Needless to say I have probably been promoting it
Have a good weekend guys. I searhed for related topics(really quick), and found nothing. So hopefully I am a one-off. I am going to likely be ordering parts to be installed under warrenty labor opps while the subframe is out also, any suggestions? Subframe bushing perhaps? Or control arms?
