Urgent- this will kill people please read - my 2000 Chevrolet Blazer rolled at 30 mph after hitting a chuck hole on the right side of the road. It threw me to the right side of the road so I brought the vehicle back onto the road at which time my steering column was going crazy and then I rolled at least once before stopping - I really thought I was dead, and my vehicle is a total loss. I have the vehicle in my possession now - because of theft related issues with allstate insurance company. I would like some help showing the world that it may not be a firestone problem, it may be a suspension problem. I can close my eyes and tell you in slow motion exactly what the vehicle did and you would think gm would want to have me interviewed -- since I lived!!!
