Consumer Description

DEATH WAS THE RESULT OF A CRASH INVOLVING A 2004 SILVERADO TRUCK, DUALLY. MY SON, GENE, DECEASED OWNER, WAS RETURNING HOME WHEN TRUCK SKIDDED AND ROLLED OVER AT LEAST TWICE, KILLING HIM. I THINK THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES OR POWER STEERING, BUT AM NOT SURE HOW TO PROCEED WITH THIS. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP IN SOME WAY. GENE'S WORK WAS ON THE ROAD, AND HE LIVED ON THE ROAD. ALTHOUGH ALCOHOL WAS A FACTOR IN THE CRASH , HIS MOTHER SPOKE TO HIM WITHIN THE HOUR OF HIS DEATH AND HE DID NOT SEEM VERY INTOXICATED. *AK
