Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My accident happened on a sunny dry day. i was driving home from work doing about 45 mph when the vehicle in front of me had hit a car that was stopped for the light. i was the fourth car back and had heard the crash. i slammed on the brakes and they grabbed and then proceeded to just continue to go and basically my car hit the back of a truck causing about $10,000 in damage and sending me to the hospital. i had enough room behind that vehicle to stop. it was like the pedal just went to the floor and i had no brakes. i am also concerned because the air bag also did not deploy. gm told me that it's because the bumpers did not meet with each other. more lies if you ask me. i think they need to have these vehicles checked before someone really get hurt bad. this has cost me much grief, loss of work and out of pocket money.*ak
