Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT, AS SHE WAS TURNING LEFT TO PARK THE CAR, SHE SAID SOMETHING HAPPENED. SHE GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO FIND THE DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL HAD COLLAPSED. THE UPPER BALL JOINT BROKE OR SEPARATED CAUSING THE TIRE TO COLLAPSE. THIS CAUSED THE JEEP TO BE TOTALLY DISABLED AND I'M SURE WILL BE A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. WHAT IS EVEN SCARIER IS THAT THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND SOMETHING MUCH WORSE COULD HAVE OCCURRED. HOW UNSAFE IS THIS VEHICLE!!! PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS VEHICLE. THE SUV HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED YET. IT IS STILL BEING LOOKED AT. I NOTICED THAT THIS IS NOT THE ONLY COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THIS SO THAT OUR FAMILIES ARE NOT IN DANGER! *TR
