Consumer Description

THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE COIL SPRING FRACTURED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. I HAD BEEN DRIVING ABOUT 0.1 MILES AFTER A LEFT TURN AND WAS TRAVELING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED WHEN THE COIL FRACTURED AND A SECTION OF THE COIL PUNCTURED AND TORE THE INNER WALL OF THE TIRE CAUSING A SUDDEN TIRE FAILURE. THE SOUND OF THE FRACTURE WAS VERY LOUD METAL ON METAL SOUND, DRAWING PEOPLE OUT FROM NEARBY BUILDINGS. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE NEW FRONT COIL SPRINGS WERE INSTALLED, THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE REPLACED AND A FRONT END ALIGNMENT WAS PERFORMED.
