| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Dear sir/madam, this is to notify you that thursday, 12 august, my mother, a friend and i were involved in a fatal accident while my mother was driving a toyota corolla s 2002. the accident left my mother in a deep fright and with injuries on her face, as she hit the steering wheel. she is prescribed to go to therapy for over a month to overcome the catastrophe. i, now, suffer from minor back problems caused due to the accident. the accident occurred on one of the most eventful highways of georgia, highway us 78. our car, traveling on the middle lane, was hit by an isuzu suv rodeo, and after rotating about 180 degrees stopped on the middle of the highway. the entire front bumper fell apart, and the car was beyond recognition from the front. yesterday, we heard from the repair shop and their assessment was that car is totaled. most shocking part of the event is that the air bags didnt activate even after such a strong impact of suv coming at around 65 miles an hour speed and hit our toyota corolla (2002) from front. whereas, the air-bags of the rodeo did not fail to inflate. i reported this incident directly to toyota immediately after the accident. it has been over a week now and i have not recieved any calls or e-mails from their part. i sincerely hope you will please look into the matter and keep me informed. your cooperation is highly anticipated and appreciated in advance. i look forward to to hear from you a.s.a.p. sincerely, [xxx] phone number: [xxx] [xxx]. *ak information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr |
