This latest probe is an expansion of an earlier investigation into rust concerns with Chrysler-made Jeep vehicles. The investigation stems from 22 reports from Jeep Liberty owners saying that the vehicle&#8217;s lower control arms failed due to excessive corrosion. Three of the complaints included reports of having lost control of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>Chrysler says that there have been no reported injuries or fatalities linked to the possible rust issue with the SUV&#8217;s suspension system. The automaker is working with engineers to pinpoint the scope and severity of the issue.<\/p>\n<p>As a  <a title=\"Greenville car accident lawyer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sinklaw.com\/greenville\/\">Greenville car accident lawyer<\/a> , motorist safety is something that I am very aware of; I hope that no one has been injured because of the rust issue.
