Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS DRIVING, I LOST ALL STEERING CONTROL AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH. I SUBSEQUENTLY LEARNED THAT ONE OF THE TIE RODS ON THE VEHICLE HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN. FURTHER, TWO OF THE OTHER THREE TIE RODS WERE UNSAFE. (TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, I WAS BILLED FOR THE REPAIRS). ABOUT 20 MINUTES EARLIER, I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AT A SPEED OF 55-60 MPH, IF THIS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS AT THAT SPEED, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. OTHER PEOPLE COULD ALSO HAVE BEEN KILLED.
