Consumer stated her son was involved in a rollover accident. Prior to the accident the anti-lock brakes did not work and the air bags did not deploy on impact. The dealership told her the airbags could still be checked to see if they are defective. The vehicle rolled twice and the front end hit the ditch. There was dew on the road and there was a deer in the road. He then slammed on the brakes and they locked up. There was a police report filed. He sustained a bruise collar bone, bruises on his legs, a bump on his head and he has to go to the dentist this week to have his teeth checked.
