I was getting on the freeway when I lost control of my vehicle out of no where, luckily I was in the middle of the on ramp and not in freeway traffic yet. My vehicle pulled toward the drive side, I quickly pulled e-brake turned my wheel opposite of traffic and braked. The car started fish tailing right to left because of the drive side pulling and me trying not to allow the car to spin out or go off the side of the on ramp.
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 25 MPH the vehicle started smoking under the hood. It was pulled to the side of the road where the engine stalled. The fire department was called to the scene but no report was filed. They determined there was not a fire, but there was a leak of oil and antifreeze due to a busted hose. The vehicle was towed to the contacts home. Although the dealer was alerted no other inspections were made.
