| On september 28th 2006 i was driving my 2005 chevy trailblazer ext down the road between 55 and 60 mph. it had started raining about 5 minutes earlier. i started up the hill and was approaching the other road i needed to turn on and gently applied the brakes. as soon as i applied the brakes, the vehicle went out of control. i tried to pump the brakes and get the vehicle back into control but had no luck. i then crossed the center line and crashed head on into the guard rail on the other side of the road. after i hit the guard rail i bounced off of that and hit an on coming vehicle in the passenger side with the front end of my car. i then proceeded to continue back to the other side of the road and jump a 4ft ditch and finally came to a stop on the other side of the ditch. the funny thing is that this all happened while i was traveling up hill!!! i truly believe the so called four wheel anti-lock brakes failed. the air bags never deployed either! after the crash the right front tire had a huge hole in the side wall and i am not too sure that this wasn't part of the problem. the torn part of the tire is sticking out and seems like it failed too. i just wish i could get someone to investigate this (goodyear tires). *nm | |||
