Consumer Description

IT WAS RAINING, THE HIGHWAY WAS WET, AND I WAS DRIVING AT OR BELOW THE RATED SPEED LIMIT. WHAT I WAS NOT AWARE OF WAS THE FLOODING ON THE HIGHWAY. MY TRUCK HIT THE 2-FEET WATER, CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL, HIT THE GUARD RAIL WITH THE TRUCK FLIPPING ON ITS ROOF. MINOR INJURIES AND THE TRUCK COULD NOT BE DRIVEN; HOWEVER, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE POLICE WERE ON SITE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND IS A TOTAL LOSS, AS PER THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE MANUFACTURER WILL BE CONTACTED DUE TO THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING. THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED USED, I HAVE HAD IT FOR 10+ YEARS, FULLY MAINTAINED, AND IT HAS 137,000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED.
