2010 Chevrolet Camaro

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER WAS TRAVELING OVER A TWO MILE STRETCH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND RAPIDLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO 110 MPH AND PROCEEDED TO TRAVEL THROUGH A FOUR-WAY STOP SIGN. THE DRIVER THEN ENGAGED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE BECAME ERRATICALLY UNCONTROLLABLE. THE VEHICLE THEN TRAVELED OVER A CURB AND CRASHED INTO THE SIDE OF A RESIDENCE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER WAS KILLED IN THE IMPACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED FOR THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 22,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY WIFE WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION IN HER 2010 CHEVY CAMARO. THIS VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO A KEY FOB RECALL AND THE RECALL WAS NOT DONE. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING N/B ON HY 99 THROUGHT ACAMPO CA AND APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH. IT WAS RAINING. THE CAR POSSIBLY HYDROPLANED IN THE RAIN BUT THEN SHE LOST ALL STEERING, BRAKES AND POWER AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT THE CAR LEFT THE ROADWAY AND THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT FRONT END IMPACT WHEN THE FRONT OF THE CAR HIT A DRAINAGE DITCH. THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A UNCONTROLLED SPIN AND CAME TO REST BACK IN THE #2 LANE OF N/B HY 99. THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING WHEN THE CAR STOPPED. MY WIFE DID HAVE SEVERAL KEYS ON HER KEY RING. WE BELIEVE THAT SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE HAD THE FLAWED KEY FOB NOT SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THERE WAS ALSO A SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH FRONT END IMPACT THAT THE AIRBAGS WOULD HAVE DEPLOYED IF THE CAR WERE RUNNING WHEN THE COLLISION OCCURRED. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. I EXPLAINED THE KEY FOB ISSUE TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND THE CHP OFFICER WHO TOOK THE ORIGINAL REPORT. NEITHER RESEARCHED THIS AND THEY DID NOT BELIEVE THIS FLAW COULD HAVE BEEN THE PRIMARY FACTOR IN THIS COLLISION. MY WIFE'S INJURIES WERE MINOR. WE ARE AT A LOSS AND DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PROCEED. MOST ATTORNEYS WILL NOT TAKE THIS CASE BECAUSE THE INJURIES WERE MINOR. I TRUELY BELIEVE THIS CRASH WAS CAUSED BY THE FAULTY KEY FOB AND I DO NOT THINK THE INSURANCE OR THE CHP SHOULD HOLD MY WIFE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. I WILL ATTACH PHOTOS OF OUR CAR SHOWING THAT THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED BUT DIDN'T. I CAN GET COPIES OF THE POLICE REPORT AND THE LETTERS I SENT TO MY INSURANCE AND THE CHP. CHP'S RESPONSE WAS THAT EVEN THOUGH THE CAR SHUT OFF, IT COULDN'T HAVE CAUSED THIS COLLISION. LIKE I SAID THEY DID NOT LOOK INTO THIS. ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
