Consumer Description
THE REAR SUSPENSION ON OUR VEHICLE DETACHED UNEXPECTEDLY AND WITHOUT WARNING WHILE WE WERE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A CITY STREET. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS INJURED. ONCE THE VEHICLE NO LONGER IN MOTION IT WAS APPARENT THAT THE REAR CONTROL ARM / REAR SUSPENSION HAD DETACHED FROM EXCESSIVE RUSTED. THE VEHICLE IS A 2013 WITH NO OUTER BODY RUST. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS COULD BE A DEFECT AS WELL AS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE.
