we were discussing this on the pathfinder forum...they are all UK vehicles where you have heavy salt corrosion from the gritters in teh winter...a lot of UK cars have the issue, coupled with it being a dual cab that is probably overloaded (same as we have seen over here with touring dual cabs)

not sure how much of a case the owners have got ??

Definitely looks like it's been overloaded , I'd say the rust hasn't helped but definitely over loaded.

Ha ha.
Ive seen similar results before.
Seen it on a car carry trailer with hydraulic moving decks.
Its been secured to the deck with chains.
An then someone not paying attention starts moving the wrong deck.
Presto new designed 4wd made to see easier down steep inclines...
