Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH AND TRAFFIC SLOWED DOWN. I WENT TO BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND MY VEHICLE DIDN'T SLOW. IT FELT AS IF MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND I ATTEMPTED TO MOVE INTO THE OTHER LANE, BUT MY JEEP HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND SUFFERED $9,000 WORTH OF DAMAGE. I ALSO WAS INJURED REQUIRING SURGERY ON MY FOOT THAT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. *DT *DT CONSUMER STATED CAR IS REPAIRED.*JB *DT CONSUMER STATED I HAVE THE INVOICE, HOWEVER FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THE BRAKES. I STILL FEEL THERE WAS/IS AN ISSUE WITH THEM. I CAN FORWARD THE INVOICE IF NEEDED, BUT IT DOES NOT MENTION THE BRAKES. I DID ASK THE SHOP AND MY INSURANCE TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED. MY FATHER IN LAW PICKED UP THE CAR FOR ME AND SAID THAT THE SHOP TOLD HIM THE BRAKES WERE FINE. CONSUMER DID NOT HAVE ISSUES BEFORE WITH BRAKE SYSTEM.*JB PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB *DT*JB
