2000 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500

From the initial report, the driver was over speed limit. However, the airbags DID NOT deploy that could have potentially saved his life.

My husband just had a wreck last night. His gas pedals got stuck causing him to lose control of the truck and the truck to spend around in the middle of the street. It hit another car and a telephone pole before jumping the curb and landing in a field. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY ON ANY PARTS OF THE TRUCK THAT WAS IMPACTED BY THE WRECK. Both sides of the truck are completely smashed in and both windshields have been busted out. My husband actually came of the windshield of the truck where the Ai

MY SON FELL ASLEEP WHILE DRIVING AND HIT A TREE AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HE HAD HIS SEATBELT ON HOWEVER I DON'T THINK IT WORKED PROPERLY EITHER DUE TO HIS CHIN HIT THE STEERING WHEEL AND HEAD HIT THE WINDSHIELD. HE PUSHED THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN INTO THE DASH ABOUT 4-5 INCHES AND COULDN'T EVEN MOVE THE SHIFTER ON THE COLUMN. THE TRUCK IS TOTALED AND THERE IS MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AS HE HIT THE TREE HEAD ON BUT TOWARD THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS IS A 2000 CH

AS I WAS MAKING A TURN AFTER A STOP (WHICH FELT SOMEWHAT SLUGGISH OF A STOP) I WENT TO TAP THE BRAKES AND EXPERIENCED COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKES. I WAS ON A DESCENT AND IMMEDIATELY THREW THE TRUCK INTO PARK TO CUT THE POWER TO WHEELS AND PRESSED EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND I HAD A SPLIT SECOND TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO AS THE ROAD WAS CAUSING RAPID ACCELERATION. I SAW ONE CHANCE TO DRIVE OVER A DITCH AND INTO A YARD BY A HOUSE. I

THIS TRUCK HAS HAD ISSUES SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED IT. BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE TRUCK IN A SAFE DISTANCE WHICH ENDED UP WITH ME HAVING AN ACCIDENT WITH IT. THE BRAKE LINE RUSTED OUT AFTER LESS THAN 100,000 MILES AND NEEDED TO REPLACE THEM ALL. NOW WITH 173,000 MILES THE GAS LINES ARE LEAKING AND THE FRAME IS RUSTED SO BAD THAT IT CANNOT BE PUT UP ON A LIFT TO FIX THE BRAKE LINES.
