APRIL 21, 2006: I WAS PROCEEDING ON A GREEN LEFT TURN ARROW AND WAS HIT BY A FORD TAURUS RUNNING STOP LIGHT. HE VEERED AROUND MY FRONT END, TEARING OFF THE ENTIRE FRONT END AND PUSHING MY VEHICLE INTO THE ONCOMING LANES. I DID NOT SEE HIM COMING. I HEARD THE CRASH, THEN SAW A BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT. I HAD LOST CONSCIOUSNESS AND WAS AWAKENED BY A MAN KNOCKING ON MY WINDOW. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT HOLD. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I SMASHED INTO THE STEERING WHEEL CAUSING HEAD AND CHEST TRAUMA, WAS RUSHED TO THE ER, SPENDING TWO DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL WITH A BRUISED HEART AND HEAD LACERATIONS. RECEIVED FULL BODY SCANS, X-RAYS, CARDIAC TESTING, DR BILLS ($30,000 AND STILL COUNTING). THE LEASE CAR IS TOTALED ($14,000 DAMAGE). I HAVE CONSTANT PAIN, BRUISING, HEADACHES, BLURRED VISION, MEMORY LOSS. I LOST MY NEW JOB AS A RESULT. FYI: ANOTHER JEEP CHEROKEE HIT THE WALL ON I-95, 5-21-06 AND THE ENTIRE FRONT END WAS GONE. CURIOUS IF THAT SEAT BELT HELD? DID NOT SEE ANY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. CALLED 911 FROM MY CELL TO REPORT THE CRASH, 1/2 MILE SOUTH OF ATLANTIC BLVD EXIT (BROWARD COUNTY, FL). HOW MANY DEATHS ARE ACTUALLY CAUSED BY THE FAULTY SEAT BELTS? IF I HAD GOTTEN BROAD SIDED, I WOULD HAVE GONE RIGHT THROUGH MY SIDE WINDOW. I COMPLAINED TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY, THE FAULTY SEAT BELTS HAVE RESULTED IN MY HAVING A HUGE CLAIM WHICH IS GOING TO CAUSE MY FUTURE INSURANCE PREMIUMS TO SKYROCKET! THERE MUST BE MORE THAN JUST 3 INCIDENTS!! INSURANCE COMPANIES, ATTORNEYS OR OWNERS ARE NOT REPORTING!? *JB
2014
EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE
I HAVE BEEN HAVING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES IN MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN MAY. IT HAS A TOTAL OF 1,000 MILES ON IT, BUT THE PROBLEMS STARTED WITH ONLY 10MILES. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IMMEDIATELY LIGHTS UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. THE REARVIEW MIRRORS MOVE INTO DOWNWARD FACING POSITIONS WHILE IN PARK AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS ALONE IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. THE ABS BRAKES INTERMITTENTLY WORK AND FINALLY FAILED. THE ABS MODULE FAILED. THE BACKUP CAMERA WORKS INTERMITTENTLY AND THE BACKUP WARNING SYSTEM ALSO IS INTERMITTENTLY WORKING. MY CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP EVERY MONTH SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED IT AND IT HAS CURRENTLY BEEN THERE FOR THE LAST 2 ВЅ WEEKS AWAITING AN ABS REPAIR. *TR
