Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE MAIN ROAD IN OUR TOWN AT 30MPH DRIVER HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND THEN LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING IN 2004 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CAR WAS SWERVING AND THE DRIVER HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CAR WENT OFF THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE ROAD, SCRAPED A METAL MILE MARKER AND FINALLY CAME TO A STOP. IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE LEFT REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD CORRODED AND BROKEN. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
