What owners wrote

My vehicle (2019 jeep grand cherokee) was only 1 1/2 years old and was involved in a head on collision. I was driving about 45MPH when I was struck by 4-door chevy silverado (driver-to-driver collision) that was attempting to make a left turn on green, so only going about 3-5MPH. The truck's steering wheel airbag deployed, but none of my jeep's did. My jeep's entire front area was crushed, and driver's side experienced extensive damage as well; resulting in my jeep being totaled.
