Consumer Description

ON JUNE 2ND 2019 I WAS TURNING FROM A LOCAL STREET TO RT 303 WHEN HEARD A POP NOISE. IT CAUSED MY WHEEL TO JERK QUICKLY TO THE RIGHT AND MY DASH BOARD LIGHT TURNED ON. WHEN I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE TO LOOK AND SEE WHAT IT WAS I SAW THAT THE BODY OF MY VEHICLE WAS RESTING PRACTICALLY ON THE TIRE. I WENT INTO A PARKING LOT ABOUT 400M WHICH WAS IN FRONT OF AN AUTO BODY. I LEFT IT IN THE PARKING LOT OVER NIGHT AND THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT ACROSS THE STREET WHERE THERE IS AN AUTO BODY. WHEN THEY LIFTED UP MY CAR THEY SAW THAT THE REAR LEFT PART HOLDING UP MY SHOCKS HAD RUSTED AND ERODED AND SNAPPED AND THAT MY REAR RIGHT SIDE WAS RUSTED AND CRACKED.
