Lost control of the car. Tried to overcorrect the car and turned the wheel too hard, the brakes locked and I lost control of the car and rolled it on its roof. There was sufficient frontal impact that the airbags should have been deployed, but didn't. Also, it was a new car, so the brakes should not have locked.
Brakes failed causing consumer to rear end another vehicle, causing damage to the front end, air bag did not deploy, the brakes were inspected and said to be ok but another accident happened, consumer believes the pressure reducing valves malfunctioned prior to recall resulting in the two accidents.
