| Description of the problem | Purchased vehicle less than 6 monthes ago and complained to the dealer that it sounded and felt like wheels were about to fall off. 8 days later i took it to get an oil change and the shop refused. He explained that when they lifted the jeep and inspected tires the wire treads were exposed in the middle of the tire, at any moment the vehicle could pose serious injury or death to passengers. I took it to the dealership and they changed tire but did not inspect the vehicle. The brakes continually made a screeching sound , for some unknown reason. The steering wheel would often veer left when turned right and the jeep kept making rubbing and popping sounds last week while travelling less than 20 miles an hour the car made a popping sound , i lost control of steering wheel and it was veering to right , running up on the curb and the vehicle was still in motion . . When the jeep finally stopped i was unable to move steering wheel nor push it out of the street. It had to be towed away. Mechanic inspected and advised of numerous issues: axle bent, control arm , drive shaft, suspension to mention a few. The jeep had 107000 miles when this occured and is under warranty. Mechanic is requesting warranty approval to fix the failed components and damages incurred from the failure |
