Is the rear cargo bed of Changan Kalam built to withstand long-term heavy-duty use, o r do owners face structural damage?

Reports of cracked welds o r loose joints are common after heavy use. Does this reflect poor material quality o r design flaws?

Owners frequently report damage like:

Cracked weld joints

Rusted deck floor due to poor paint job o r drainage

Loose bolts in bed walls o r tailgate

This points to:

Compromised metal quality

Weak welding o r finishing

Design not intended for high-stress cycles

Some users reinforce the bed locally with angle iron o r custom welding, but this adds cost and risk.
