| Description of the problem | I do not know the exact details of the entire accident, as we did not yet meet the new family, but it took the life of my grandchild. She was not driving her boyfriend was. It was his mothers vehicle and it happened in another state. Las vegas, nevada. The cause listed in the accident report was a fault of the vehicle. He was following his sisters vehicle, as they just arrived in vegas and was visiting his family. The car accelerated unexpectedly and hit his sisters car then flew into a wall. His mother was killed and my granddaughter instantly. I would like to see a change in the way these recalls are dealt with. I'm just going through any venue i can to get it done. These cars should be flagged "do not register" by department of motor vehicles until the parts are repaired. If i don't smog a vehicle i cannot drive it. Make it that way for all recalled vehicles. Work with the car companies to get this done before more children, families die. Please. |
