MH> Like a previous discussion on how my 1980 Malibu brake lines rusted   
    MH> and eventually snapped, I have been having the same issue with the   
    MH> Durango's power steering lines.  These lines should not rust!  That   
    MH> is one of my biggest gripes with the auto industry.  At least they   
    MH> started making mufflers that don't rust these days.   
      
   i've said it before and it always seems to be true... even with decent knife   
   sets... it all comes down to using "cheap" chinese stainless steel... more   
   specifically that which has larger chunks of carbon in the mix... after a   
   time, this carbon starts breaking out and then you have a hole that gets worse   
   and worse unti lit breaks...   
      
   now, if the chinese and others would learn to grind their materials up smaller   
   and not allow these larger particles to get into te mix, then things would be   
   a whole lot better... i will hold off pointing at the bean counters and   
   lawyers which are really at the root of things with corporate greed and trying   
   to satisfy stock holders more than they are trying to ensure that they are   
   making *quality* products...
