I'm not trying to do dual complaints. While braking ,prior to impact, there was a loud clicking coming from the ABS control unit under the hood, also the computer ECM, shows that the airbag deployed, serious lifetime injuries, I'm going into a powerchair, at 42 there is no surgery that will help me, and leslie is going to need back surgery, and a hip,and knee replacement!
