Just tried to get an alignment, i was told that my subframe has rotted and is pulling away from body of the vehicle. I have never experienced this problem before. Does any one know anything about this? Is this a major or minor problem? How much will this cost? Any suggestion or information will be appreciated!

my guess is your subframe bushings are rotted out.why dont you crawl under the Riv and check it out?
