Narrative

I BOUGHT A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY IN MID-APRIL OF 2005. I TOLD A NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT THE JEEP FRIGHTENED ME WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE THE STEERING WAS LOOSE AND LIKE THE JEEP WAS SKATING ON THE ROAD. AFTER DRIVING THE JEEP OVER 2 1/2 WEEKS I HAD A TRAGIC ACCIDENT LOST OF STEERING CONTROL. *AK
