I took my car for a major service today, and the mech, broke it to me that there was a major issue with my car, he noticed fractures within the chassis, perhaps from a major car accident....man i felt so buggered once i found this out, thank god im alive seeing how this could have escalated to something worse, the car atm is not driveable, the problem now is repair, im just waiting on a quote now...

bad luck dude

I also trusted a guy when buying a car.. he said it was fine, no problems etc.. so I just trusted him, took it for a drive and seemed fine. Man how he was lying lol. Already spent 2k in repairs and still not done yet. a 3500 dollar car now 5500 and still going up lol.. a good deal turned to a rip off. Lesson learnt. Trust no one. Should of got a safety inspection or something first ay

If the chassis is gone sounds like its a write-off unfortunately, needs a new chassis, and would be cheaper selling off the parts and getting a new car

Sorry to hear man, hope it all goes well

Geez that sucks bad. Do you know where abouts on chassis the cracks were? Hope all goes well and it doesn't burn your pocket too much.

I think the most important point is that you should NEVER TRUST A SELLER.....and make your own mind up based on what you see.

How did you manage to "not see" the damage that was there..
