What owners wrote

Traveling on a local hwy and a vehicle, two cars in front, made a sudden left turn causing the vehicle in front of me to lock down their brakes thus causing me to stop abruptly. My braking system locked my wheels down causing me to slide into the car in front of me at 35 MPH. Upon impact, my airbags did not deploy and my seatbelt did not keep me from hitting the windshield causing injuries to my head, neck and body injuries from hitting the steering wheel. I am also pregnant.
