| 2009 chevy silverado lost traction on highway during slippery road conditions, vehicle spun out and hit a metal roped fence head on and also went across the median and slammed the front end of vehicle into a guard rail stopping it instantly from going into on coming traffic. the vehicles damage was on the front end directly in the center causing a wedge into the radiator, engine and bent the front of the frame. the impact was very loud and solid. the impact caused the truck to stand on the front of vehicle, slamming the back end of the vehicle on the ground with great force. the airbag didn't deploy which at the speed of around 60 mph and the place the vehicle was hit in, makes me very concerned on the safety of this vehicle. my 5 year old son said his right arm was hurting after the accident and with in the hour of having the accident myself ended up in the hospital with a stiff neck and a very soar and bruised back, i was released with minor injuries and i consider myself lucky. please let me know if anything can be done about this situation and the safety of myself and my son. *tr | |||

| You cannot open the doors with the handle from inside the truck if doors are locked. pulling on handle will not unlock the door. i feel this is a major safety issue as you would not be able to until you use the unlock button. if you are in a crash your instinct would be the use the handle not to unlock it first. *tr | |||
