Nissan Pickup

THE ENTIRE FRAME OF THE 1995 NISSAN HARDBODY PICKUP IS RUSTING APART, THIS IS THE SECOND TRUCK OF THIS TYPE IVE OWNED AND HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. IT IS NO LONGER DEEMED SAFE BY MECHANICS TO MEET N.C.D.M.V. INSPECTION STANDARDS . THE PROBLEM IS FROM THE SAME AS THE NISSAN FRONTIER TRUCKS RECALLED, COIL ROLLED FRAME AND NO DRAINAGE FOR WATER, MUD, SALT ETC ON THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME. THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS X2 SINCE THIS IS THE SECOND NISSAN I HAVE OWNED. THANKS.

TOOK TRUCK IN TO HAVE IT ALIGNED. TIRE SHOP REFUSED TO PERFORM ALIGNMENT DUE TO COMPROMISED INTEGRITY OF THE FRAME RAILS FROM RUST/CORROSION. WAS TOLD THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND THE SERVICE TECH RECOMMENDED I TAKE IT TO A FRAME SHOP IMMEDIATELY TO HAVE FRAME FIXED. I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND HAD THE UNDERSIDE RUSTPROOFED BY ZIEBART ANNUALLY FROM 1995-2010. I'D LIKE AN EXPLANATION AS TO HOW THIS COULD HAVE OCCURRED AND SOME REMEDY OFFERED.
