My daughter was driving the 2000 cavaleir from church to her college when she stopped at a stop sign and looked left and then right and proceeded through the intersection and failed to see a Chrysler minivan coming from her left.. she braked and the minivan T-boned her car on the left side and her car proceeded to turn 90 degrees to the right for 20 feet and stopped. The most damage occured on the passenger door, to the front tire was pushed in...the whole steering wheel assembly was pushed forward. The front passenger was severely injured with severe head trauma and skull fracture.she is presently in a coma.

My wife bought a 2000 chev. Cavalier from sound Mazda inrenton a year ago in 2004, the car did not passed emission test, we took it to the mechanic and he informed us that the catalityc converter was not working, the O2 censor was bad and it would be pricy, we took it to a dealership and were going to trade it in, the manager of the dealership pulled a carfax report and he asked us if the dealership had informed us that in 2002 the car was in a wreck and the airbags were deployed, we told him no, when she bought the car none of this was informed to us. We believe that it is unfair for the dealership to not inform us about this, specially because the airbags don't work in the car and they still sold it to us like that.

What should I do about these incidents? I have taken my car in 3 times for the high pitch noise in the dash, I have taken it in once for the raddling in the dash, and I am taking it in 8/28/2002 for the airbag situation. When I called preston hood about the airbag the service guy acted like it wasn't a big deal until I told him that I have a wedding in less than a month and if my airbag deploys and leaves bruises I would be really upset. My airbag light keeps going on and off and the car isn't but 2 years old. Help me please my car is falling apart!
