I JUST PURCHASED A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY WITH 30,200 MILES STILL UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY ON JANUARY 14, 2005. ON JANUARY 22, 2005 I WAS PULLING IN A PARKING LOT AND MY CONTROL ARM BROKE. I FOUND A OPEN CAMPAIGN ON THE VEHICLE ID 03V460000. I BELIEVE THAT BEFORE A DEALERSHIP CAN PUT A VEHICLE ON THEIR LOT TO SELL THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO CHECK FOR OPEN CAMPAIGNS. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT SHOULD BE DONE. *NM
