Consumer Description

TRAVELING 81 NORTH IN NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA, ROUNDING TURN CAR STALLED. I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHICH CAUSED ME TO SLAM INTO A GUARD RAIL AND THE CAR WENT DOWN AN EMBANKMENT AND INTO A BOULDER. AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. PASSENGER AND I WERE SEVERELY INJURED AND HAD TO BE PULLED OUT OF THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH WE WERE BOTH BUCKLED IN, THE SEATBELTS FLEW OFF UPON IMPACT. THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD NOT BE ON THE ROAD (ITS A DEATH TRAP). *TR
