| It was raining, not heavy, though. i was going about 65 mph on a major highway and tried to brake because the traffic in front of me was slowing down. the car started losing control and i couldn't brake and stop the car at all. then the car started moving towards the left quickly and spinned for about 2 or 3 times. the rear end on the right side finally hit the middle barrier on the highway and the car turned out to be facing the incoming traffic. no airbags deployed. i wasn't hurt too badly because i didn't hit any other cars (luckily) and it was the rear end that got hit. i got a big bruise on my thigh and my whole body was sore for 3 days. the car was totaled. i don't know if there's a defect with the brake or the wheels or not, but i thought i'd report this for other owners to be aware of. *ak | |||
