NHTSA Complaint #10789997 — 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

I WAS TRAVELING ON MONTROSE PARKWAY IN ROCKVILLE, MD. I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 45MPH. I APPROACHED A SLIGHT BEND TO THE LEFT THAT HAD A SLIGHT DECLINE. I LOST CONTROL ON DEBRIS THAT WAS LEFT OVER FROM AN ACCIDENT EARLIER THAT MORNING. I STRUCK AND WENT OVER THE CURB WITH THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY VEHICLE. I WENT HEAD ON INTO A STEEL LIGHT POST INCASED IN A CONCERT FOOTER. THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED VERY EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING THE COLLISION. THIS IS A VERY MAJOR CONCERN TO ME BECAUSE THIS COULD HAVE TURNED OUT WAY WORSE, BUT I WAS VERY, VERY LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO ONLY SUSTAIN BRUISING. THIS VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS.
