What owners wrote
On june 21st, 2020 I was at a red light when a van hit me in the rear and my airbags did not deploy. Me and my wife and kids were in the car and injured. I got taking to the hospital right away and my rest of my family went after I was taken in.
Van horn chrysler and dodge in plymouth wi. Sold me a vehicle that was in a major front end accident. When they sold me the air the airbag was not attached. The steering was pulling to the right. The suspension was severely damage, it was so severe that when I took the car to chrysler, I spend money there to get the problems repaired. Because van horn wouldn't pay for the repairs. After chrysler couldn't make the repairs, because the car had been in a major accident from the previous owner.
