Tl* the contact owns a 2010 chevrolet hhr. While the contact was driving approximately 70 MPH when the vehicle decelerated to 40 MPH without warning.

On a separate occasion, the air bags failed to deploy when the vehicle was involved in a crash. The vehicle was destroyed. The front seat driver sustained minor injuries to the right hand.
Air bag warning light constantly coming on, had it fixed in october 2012, after arguing with the dealer that it should be covered under the warranty. 2 months later the light is back on. ## VIN failed ##
