Consumer Description

THIS MORNING WHEN I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, MY CAR HAD MAJOR FAILURES. WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY (US-46), THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES FAILED FIRST, THEN WENT THE POWER STEERING NEXT. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD IN TIME BEFORE GETTING CRUSHED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER. FUNNY THING IS, I KNEW THIS WAS COMING. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP ON WEDNESDAY TO TELL THEM I SUSPECTED MY CAR WAS GOING TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUES OTHERS HAVE HAD. MY CAR STARTED SHAKING QUITE A BIT WHEN I WAS DRINKING ON TUESDAY 2/21/17. WHEN YOU RESEARCH THIS FOR THIS MODEL, YOU'LL FIND ALL SORTS OF SCARY STORIES, LIKE MINE TODAY. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT I WAS TOTALLY BLOWN OFF, TREATED LIKE A MORON, AND TOLD THEY COULD SEE ME ON MARCH 7. HELPFUL, RIGHT? SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP FOR TOMORROW MORNING 2/25/17. ALAS, I DIDN'T MAKE IT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE. HAD I BEEN DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE, THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I JUST HOPE SOMEONE READS THIS AND UNDERSTANDS 1. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST PERSON IT HAPPENED TO AND 2. THIS ISSUE IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. I ESCAPED WITH MY LIFE TODAY. OTHERS MAY NOT.
