| 2003 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION | WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE THE STARTING MECHANISM SEEMS TO STAY ENGAGED EVEN AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS STARTED.*AK |
| 1998 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK | I WAS DRIVING SOUTH IN A FOUR LANE ROAD. A CAR WAS COMING NORTH AND TURNED INTO ME TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. MY DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WAS HIT, THE WHEEL WENT FLAT. UPON SEEING HIM COME INTO ME, I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND SOMETHING SNAPPED. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT UP INTO THE STEERING COLUMN . I COULD NOT KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT. I WENT INTO TWO LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE HITTING A FENCE WHICH STOPPED THE CAR. I HAD NO BRAKES. MY ANKLE IS BROKE AND I'M IN A CAST BECAUSE OF THE PEDAL SNAPPING UPWARD. UPON INPACT, THE THIRD BENCH IN THE VAN UNBOLTED AND WENT FORWARD. I WAS ALONE IN THE VAN THAT DAY, THANK GOD. I AM LUCKY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC COMING. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR KILLED SOMEONE BECAUSE I COULD NOT STOP THE CAR. I FEEL THE BRAKES COULD HAVE BEEN MADE SAFER. PLEASE HELP OTHER FAMILIES WHO COULD BE INJURED WORSE IN WHAT I CONSIDERED A "FAMILY VAN". THANK YOU. IF YOU CAN TELL ME WHO I CAN TALK TO OR WRITE TO, PLEASE LSET ME KNOW. *AK( DOT NUMBER: ) |
