problem #1

Nov 022005

S2000

  • Manual transmission
  • 3,500 miles
: the contact stated the cruise control was set at 60mph on wet roads when the vehicle went over a patch of uneven pavement on the expressway and spun out of control crashing into a tree backward. Both occupants were wearing their seat belts, but the passenger sustained minor whiplash injuries. Both frontal airbags deployed as a result of the accident. The police took a report at the scene. After the accident the insurance agent informed the contact the cruise control should not be used during wet conditions per the owner's manual. The contact was not made aware of this information when the vehicle was purchased and knows others are not aware as well. The salesman who sold the vehicle to the contact was unaware of the potential danger of using the cruise control during wet conditions.
