NHTSA Complaint #11223062 — 2015 CHRYSLER 200

ON JUNE 19 AT APPROXIMATELY 9:15AM, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TO TAKE MY SON TO SUMMER CAMP. I WAS ABOUT 5 MINUTES FROM MY JOB. I HAD JUST CROSSED A BRIDGE. MY CAR HIT A GUARDRAIL AND I SPUN INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE. I WAS NOT DISTRACTED OR ON MY PHONE. I TAKE THAT SAME ROAD EVERYDAY AND NEVER HAD AN ISSUE. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR, I NOTICED THAT THE AXLE AND WHEEL HAD COME COMPLETELY OFF. I WAS TOLD BY THE WITNESSES AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER THAT THE CV AXLE HAD BROKE OFF WHICH CAUSED ME TO HIT THE GUARDRAIL. I AM A SAFE DRIVER AND THIS WAS MY FIRST ACCIDENT. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR FROM CARVANA AND IT WAS DELIVERED TO ME ON FEBRUARY 2ND. THE CAR WAS SERVICED IN JANUARY ACCORDING TO THE PAPERWORK THAT I FOUND IN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MORE SERIOUS ISSUE. I WAS NOT SPEEDING. THERE WAS A CAR IN FRONT OF ME THAT WAS MERGING OFF ONTO THE OFF RAMP SO I HAD ACTUALLY SLOWED DOWN. THAT AXLE SHOULD NOT HAVE COME OFF THAT EASILY. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS.
