They say the car is not safe to drive, as it could come apart at any moment, and it will cost so much to repair (current estimate is $8000 and still climbing!) that it may be better for me to buy a new car (which I cannot afford).  The mechanic expressed shock at how badly the subframe has deteriorated.  He said it is in much worse shape than the rest of the car, which I have always maintained carefully.  In 2019 my car was recalled for a defective front cross-member, which the dealer replaced.  I was told at the time that it was recalled because the coating applied to it was defective and did not protect the part from corrosion.  Based on my research, it seems that the same defective coating was applied to the rear subframe, and that it is why it has rusted so quickly and severely.  I see that the NHTSA is already aware of this issue - [XXX]  .  The exact problem I am having is described in [XXX]  : \"Mazda6 owners told NHTSA there was severe corrosion of the right rear subframes that caused the steering rack mounting bolts to fail.\"  It is completely unacceptable that Mazda replaced the defective part in the front but has not replaced the similarly defective part in the rear, which has failed for the same reason.  I am furious that this has made my beloved car, which is otherwise in very good shape and runs beautifully, undriveable.  Mazda should be required to repair this severe safety defect, which is entirely their responsibility!  Thank you for your time.  I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
