| I was traveling toward kokomo, indiana, returning home from a dr's appointment with my service dog, gamsby. there was a harley_davidson trailer truck with a michigan license plate in front of me. a large metal l shaped bar flew from under the trailer and under my car, sending it into a spin and tearing up the bottom of the car. my car is no longer operational for trips out of town. i tried to talk with the harley davidson company and they claimed no responsibility. i am a college teacher, disabled and both me and my seizure dog were injured. harley-davidson's corporate office brushed us off like dirt. it is hard enough to survive with medical bills and little income. now my dog is having seizures (probably due to his head hitting the dash in the crash) and do not have a safe car to drive. i know life is not fair, but in this case i think the larger company feels they are above the law. *tr | |||
