I was driving at about 20 MPH over an overpass when I saw that the car in front of me had stopped. Even though it seemed that there was plenty of room to stop (maybe 200 feet) when I stood on the brakes, it only slowed the van down but not quick enough. I thought it would be better to hit them straight on rather than swerving and maybe cliping them. I did not feel any vibration from the ABS brakes. I also did not lay a skid mark. I bent the stearing wheel but the air bag did not deploy. I had my brakes seviced just 3 week before the crash. They gave me new front brakes and did my front end. I also got new tires. My husband tried the brakes on a country road the next day and the van went sideways. The ABS light did not come on til about a week after we got the car back from the repair shop. At about 25000 miles the ABS light had come on and romania chevrolet fixed the ABS under the warrentee.
Driver's air bags failed to deploy during collison.
The air bag did not inflate during front end collision, resulting I n injury.
