Consumer Description
On July 27, 2022 I was driving my 2022 GMC truck on the freeway. I was rear ended by a semi truck and the passenger side was side swiped by the semi. I was driving the truck with my wife and two kids as passengers. The truck was completely totaled. No airbags deployed and the seat belts did not restrain us. All 4 of us were wearing seat belts. Also, the drivers seat completely broke, it looked like it had been completely reclined to a laying position. A police report was made. All 4 of us were taken by ambulance to the hospital. All 4 of us needed medical care. The truck was totaled and towed, the insurance has since taken possession of the truck. There were no warning lights, service lights or any indication that there was anything faulty with the truck. We had just purchased it in February 2022. My safety, as well as the safety of others was put at risk. The semi truck driver stated he was driving 60mph. If this isn't enough for air bags to deploy, I don't know what is. The seat belts also failed to restrain us. The seat belts were completely loose and during the accident failed to secure us. Again, the drivers entire seat completely broke causing severe head, neck and back injuries.
