Consumer Description

THIS ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING AT 35MPH. THE CAR VEERED LEFT AND PASS AIRBAG DEPLOYED THEN DRIVER AIRBAG. I TRIED TO TURN THE STEERING TO THE LEFT BUT THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND. I SUSTAINED INJURIES OF A BROKEN NECK. TWO MONTHS AFTER ACCIDENT I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE FOR BOTH THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE BRAKES. I BELIEVE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BY A JUNKYARD HOWEVER I BELIEVE IT WAS REBUILTED. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE ARE OTHER REPORTED INCIDENTS OF THIS NATURE.*AK
