| Description of the problem | Tl* the contact owned a 2005 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while her husband was at a stop light, he began to depress the accelerator pedal. She then stated that she remembered that the bed of the vehicle started to come towards her passenger side and lost all consciousness. When the contact had regained consciousness, she was being cut out of the vehicle by first responders; her grandson was ejected from the vehicle through the back seat. The contact, her husband and her grandson were all rushed to the hospital and treated for injuries. Her husband suffered a concussion and crack ribs; the contact had injuries to her entire right side which included a broken collar bone, broken ankle, and eight broken ribs. Her grandson had suffered broken teeth which required dental surgery; he also suffered severe mental trauma due to the accident. The air bags did not deploy as a result of the roll over.
