‘It Almost Killed Me’: Meek Mill Blasts Electric Car He Purchased, Posts Images Of Major Front-End Damage
Meek Mill posted a video April 19 of an electric car that was smashed into the wall, and he had some complaints about the overall vehicle.
“Look at this shit right here,” Meek Mill said in the video. He showed his 11.3 million followers on Twitter the serious front-end damage sustained to the vehicle. The video then panned to the interior, where the car’s break pedal was visibly dislodged and sitting on the driver’s side floor mat.
“The whole fuckin’ break pedal came off,” he said. “The first day? I’ve never seen no car on the first day [where] the break pedal came off,” he said.
First day I bought this car no air bags … brake pedal came off … with door open no safety effects … no laser censor working … this knocked me out bad, I was in park and the car started pulling off! I had this car for 4hrs maximum pic.twitter.com/dxm11kyUzu

Th famous rapper explained he had no idea what led up to this mishap.
“First day I bought this car no air bags … brake pedal came off … with door open no safety effects … no laser censor working … this knocked me out bad, I was in park and the car started pulling off! I had this car for 4hrs maximum,” he wrote.
He went on to say that the car began driving all on its own, but insisted it was in park at the time that it allegedly independently lurched forward.
