Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON OUR COUNTY ROAD, AND LOST CONTROL BECAUSE THE CAR QUICKLY AND SHARPLY VEERED OFF TO THE RIGHT TOWARDS THE DITCH. THE CAUSE IS THE SUB FRAME ASSEMBLY WAS BADLY CORRODED AND THE CONTROL ARM ASSEMBLY BROKE FREE FROM OF THE FRAME. WE HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED ON A RECALL TWO YEARS AGO TO BE CHECKED FOR A CORRODED CROSSMEMBER. WE WERE NOT INFORMED OF ANY PROBLEM DOWN THEN WITH THE SUB FRAME. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING, AND HAD I BEEN GOING FASTER I DON'T KNOW IF I'D BE HERE TODAY. IT'S IN THE REPAIR SHOP NOW. THIS OCCURRED TODAY, AUGUST 22, 2017.
