Consumer Description

I TOOK MY 2008 JEEP COMPASS IN FOR SERVICE AND THE TECHNICIANS FOUND THROUGH RUST IN THE ENGINE CRADLE, CONTROL ARMS, AND TIE RODS. I HAD TO HAVE THESE COMPONENTS REPLACED AT A COST OF $2900. THIS CAR IS LIGHTLY USED, STORED IN A GARAGE AND ONLY HAS 115532 MILES. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER / DESIGN DEFECT TO HAVE MAJOR STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS THROUGH ON A CAR THAT IS ONLY 7 YEARS OLD. I HAVE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE EFFECTED PARTS THAT I WOULD BE HAPPY TO SUBMIT AS EVIDENCE.
