| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 toyota camry lxe. A driver decided to move into my lane from the left, to avoid a serious collision i had to swerve to the right and hit the brakes. My anti-lock brakes locked and i had no control over the car as we skidded across four lanes and hit a concrete wall. The air bags did not deploy and the seat belts (which were in use) did not lock us in. My wife hit the inside ceiling and the right window of the front door. I tried to find an attorney to go after toyota but could not find one who had the guts to stand up to toyota. There was over $14,500 in repairs and as of today they are still putting the car back together again. *kb |
