Description of the problem	My 20 year old brother was on his way home and lost control on black ice trying to avoid a dog. He began to swerve and spun out, resulting in a single flip into a ditch. The front end of my vehicle is completely destroyed and believed to be totaled. The car landed on the passenger side head-first in the ditch. Not a single airbag deployed. I bought this vehicle for it's safety features considering the weather where i live. If i had taken my 5 month old daughter to town (which i was planning to do after my brother returned home), i honestly believe she wouldn't have survived if i had been in a similar situation to my brother's. I have owned the car for a few months and it had less than 10,000 miles when i bought it. *kb
