Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THE JEEP 6/04. I PURCHASED IT FOR TRANSPORTATION BACK AND FORTH TO WORK. IT WAS NEVER USED OFF ROAD. IT ONLY HAS APPROX 81000 MILES AND THE FRAME IS COMPLETELY RUSTED FROM APPROX. THE BACK OF THE FRONT TIRES TO THE FRONT OF THE REAR TIRE. THERE MAY BE MORE BUT WE HAVE TO COMPLETELY STRIP DOWN VEHICLE TO ESTABLISH IF THERE IS MORE DAMAGE. ITS SO BAD THAT YOU CAN PUT A SCREW DRIVER THROUGH AND THROUGH THE FRAME AND THE TRANSMISSION AND THE TRAY IS DISCONNECTED FROM FRAME TO FRAME AND IS COMPLETELY HANGING. SCARE TO DRIVE IT. JEEP MAY FOLD CRUMBLE IN HALF. THIS I DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. IF I DIDN'T SEE ALL THE RUST ON THE DRIVEWAY I WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND GOD ONLY KNOW IF THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A FATALITY. WITH THE JEEP ONLY BEING 11 YEARS AT THE TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AND THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON THIS THAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND. SO SAD WITH OUT MY JEEP!!!! *TR
