| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: There was a recall for the lower ball joints of my 2003 jeep liberty. i did not know anything about this recall until i received a recall letter on december 21,2006 yet on nov 25,2006 - i lost control of my vehicle and i believe it may have had something to do with the lower ball joints. it clearly states in my recall notice that water may enter the front suspension lower ball joints on my jeep and cause loss of control of vehicle........this is exactly what happened to me. i feel that daimler chrysler should be responsible for paying for my jeep which had to be totalled out and also the costs i accrued for rental vehicle and other such expenses. if i was warned about this a month earlier - i do not believe i would have had an accident. this is a very serious issue!!! *nm |
