'95 Talon unexpected rust problem
My '95 Eagle Talon has alot of rust around the right front strut tower,
such that the upper part of the 'A' arm is no longer attached to the car. Every repairman I've talked to said driving on it was "dangerous" and fixing it would take a lot of time (which equals expensive). The car is in great shape except for this problem, despite it being 10 years old and 147,000 miles. I filed a complaint with the NHTSA, but I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem.(?) Also, one repairman said he'd have to cut the rusted piece off the chasis, weld a new one on, then "reset the chassis tension". Any expert out there know what "reset the chassis tension" means? thanks, -Jim B |

I'd give it up if I were you. You could piece a bunch of stuff together and
weld it up, but why bother? > wrote in message oups.com... > My '95 Eagle Talon has alot of rust around the right front strut tower, > such that the upper part of the 'A' arm is no longer attached to the > car.
