| A hyundai tucson ran a red light at a high rate of speed (approx 50 mph) hitting us hard enough to flip us 360 degrees causing us to roll over another hyundai tucson and land on the opposite side of a four lane highway. we were hit on the passenger side whereby the door jam between the front and back doors took most of the hit. due to the way we rolled and bounced off the hood of the stationary car, i, on the passenger side took most of the hit. my head hit the window and the right side of my back and right arm were bruised. my husband, who was driving, injured his shoulder. i think if we were in any other vehicle we would have been killed or far more severely injured. our seatbelts held us in place, but the driver and passenger curtain and side airbags (that i paid extra for) did not deploy, which i think in a side impact accident and roll over, they should have. perhaps if they did, i would not have had a concussion. *tr | |||

| Left rear tire tread separation on dunlop grand trek at 21265/70/r16 on toyota sequoia 2002, while traveling at 65 mph. i don't know exactly yet if the vehicle is total loss or if can be repaired because as consequence of tread separation the vehicle lost control and crashed into the concrete wall and is badly damage. my daughter and i were injured, but not too bad but. in addition the air bags did not come out after the impact. i am looking for some legal advise to see if dunlop company will honor my loss and toyota company. i bought this suv as certified use vehicle and the expiration date will be on 2008. *jb | |||
