| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was driving about 70 on the interstate, i pulled off onto the access road. my car felt very unstable. i was coming down a hill into a very busy intersection, and i was easing through the intersection and my car fell upon its tire. the wheel well collapsed onto the tire, and i could not move. the towing people said they had seen many eclipses with this problem. i am now terrified to drive my eclipse (even after it has been repaired). i had taken my car to several dealerships and many repair shops, and i was told that there was no problem. the right front suspension separated.*jb |
