I bought this 2013 jeep wrangler jk sport 2 door about 5 month ago and im still making payments on ut. I do have a warranty but i am pretry sure it doesn't cover this issue. I just found In rear driver side wheel well that it is basically crumbling away fairly easily in the area the arrows are pointing to. My questions are, how can I repair this and is it structural? Structural meaning is it part of frame. What part is this if i was to describe it to someone? Im not a welder and would probably have to find someone to do this for me. Im concerned it will get worse and spread to more areas. It's pretty close to that filler tube and vent and I'm not sure how comfortable most people are with working in that area. Any advice is appreciated
