| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I had the vehicle in a few times with trouble in the steering and a loud noise that was constant. i had the vehicle in and the mechanic at the dealership determined my hub and bearing assembly needed to be replaced. the mechanic told me it would be safe to drive, only it would be annoying because of the noise. they had to schedule an appointment because they did not have the parts. they scheduled the appointment for friday, september 23, 2005. on september 21, while on my way to work and to take my children to school, i was going approximately 20-25 mph on a slight curve. my steering wheel failed. it would not turn to the right. it kept me going in the direction of the curve and i could not stop. i hit 2 trees and totaled my vehicle. i am in physical therapy for my knee and ankles. my daughter hurt her lower back, bruised her face and had severe bruising on her stomach from the seat belt. my son had not as severe bruising on his stomach, cut his lip, head and elbow. this luckily happened on a dirt road and not the hiway. i did research on my vehicle and determined the vehicle was 1st purchaced in michigan, then purchased in missouri and by me in arkansas. *jb |
