Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND WAS KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING THIS VEHICLE. IT SAYS IN THE ACCIDENT REPORT THAT THE BCM WAS UNRESPONSIVE AS WELL AS ANOTHER COMPUTER SYSTEM AND THE WIPERS WERE ON IN DRY WEATHER.

I WILL GIVE YOU MORE INFORMATION WHEN I RECEIVE SOME DOCUMENTS FROM OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS. THANK YOU *TR
