The contact owns a 2004 Chevrolet Tracker. The contact stated that the manufacturer did not notify the contact of a manufacturer's service campaign for rust and corrosion on the cross member. The vehicle was taken in for an inspection, and the vehicle failed. The inspector indicated that the cross member bar had extensive rust and corrosion, which needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and indicated that the statute had expired for the manufacturer's service campaign for the cross member.
