MY 18 YEAR OLD SON BOUGHT A NEW DODGE SRT-4 AND 3 WEEKS LATER LOST HIS LIFE IN AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A VERY FAST AND UNSAFE CAR. THE CAR WAS NOT MADE WELL ENOUGH FOR SUCH HIGH SPEED THAT IT WAS CAPABLE OFF. IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN MADE ,AND ESPECIALLY SOLD TO SUCH A YOUNG PERSON. EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE INFORMED ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND THE TERRIBLE CONSEQUENCES THAT OCCUR WHEN DRIVING IT THE WAY DODGE PRESENTED IT TO THE PUBLIC. OUR LIVES HAVE BEEN RUINED DUE TO THIS, AND WE DO NOT WANT ANYONE ELSE TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH WHAT WE DID. I CONTACTED THE DODGE CORPORATION AND SPOKE TO AN ATTORNEY, AND ASKED THEM HOW MANY PEOPLE HAD LOST THEIR LIVES IN THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, AND SHE ANSWERED, WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING THAT. I KNOW THAT WAS NOT TRUE. *AK
