| Steering problems |
At about 70 mph on the fwy. I swerved left to avoid a collision, abs caused steering to tighten, I was unable to straighten, so I pulled harder to the right. I skidded right, hitting another vehicle with my right front at about 50mph. The srs air bags failed to deploy. I continued to slide to 180 degrees. Rolling backwards, I hit the center divider with the right rear bumper at about 35 mph. The impact caused my seat back to collapse (recline), although I was wearing a seatbelt. I was ejected and slammed the back of my head into the ceiling of the car. I was hospitalized. The impact also ruptured the fuel tank. Driving conditions were clear, and dry. Dt.
