problem #2

Dec 012002

Monte Carlo 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 132,013 miles
During a snow storm I was in a car accident where the car in front of me abruptly stopped and because of the road conditions I was unable to decelerate fast enough and I tried to pull to the shoulder of the road to avoid hitting the other car but I still slid into the other car and then hit a tree. There was extensive damage(approx $5,000) done to the front end of my car and my air bags never deployed.
