Common. You're going to have to cut a hole in it to get at that bolt and then tack weld a new one in place.

Or you could replace the entire subframe.

I was under my car yesterday, it looks like the frame rotting is as common as a dodge neons frame rotting. That's the ONLY thing rusty on my 95.

Only in places up north where they salt the roads and your undercarriage is not protected. No rust on any Hondas I've owned while I lived here.

Default
sometimes you can get it off with a impact if u can find a way to put a little pressure on the nut but u will still have to cut and weld

Use a grinder or something to cut or remove the bolt head.
