problem #1

Mar 092007

Venture 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 31,235 miles
I was turning through a left bend on a residential road at approximately 45 mph. Posted speed 40 mph, when the rear axle split at the drivers side hub. This caused me to spin around and crash between a power pole and a tree. My air bags never deployed even with frontal impact and both side door impacted. We walked away with minor whiplash and a few bumps here and there, but the van was totaled with less than 31,000 miles on it and it was well maintained.
