I took my 2009 SX4 in for oil change and was told there is major rust damage on the front cross member bar. What is this to how does it affect my car
What is your question?
My brother was told by a place that did oil change on his 2009 Suzuki SX4 that the center Cross Member bar has major rust. What exactly does this Cross Member bar do? Is it something that needs to be replaced asap & what's the estimate of this costing.
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2009 Suzuki SX4. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
The front cross member is what most of your front end suspension and steering bolt to and it's what the engine rests on. Basically it's one of the most important parts on your car and you should not drive it if it's compromised. With that said, I recommend a second opinion. It's possible it's surface rust and the oil change place isn't experienced.
Either way a second opinion is needed for sure.
