What owners wrote

This is a correction and addition to odi 10098071. I made a left turn at about 10 MPH. After the turn the vehicle skidded, hit curb and flipped. A police officer witnessed the incident and said that it appeared that the anti-lock brakes did not react. The car is also equipped with enhanced accident response system which obviously did not react.
