Recently I discovered that Honda has substituted the use of adhesive in place of welding for
attaching sub-frame to primary frame, I am concerned about long term potential for adhesive deterioration. Am I right to be concerned?

in the picture you will see the front and rear frames they are bolted or welded to the body they would never use an adhesive for a structural thing like that. they could glue a body panel on, but not the frame. If anything it would be put in between where there may be a gap for noise reduction, but that is all.
