ON OR ABOUT JUNE 2ND, I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 PONTIAC G-6, WHEN A ROTWILLER DOG JUMPED IN FRONT OF ME SO I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES, THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND PROPERLY AT ALL, I DIDN'T STOP , AND I SPUN OUT AND DID A 150 SPIN AND HIT AN EMBANKMENT. I MISSED THE DOG, BUT WRECKED MY BEAUTIFUL CAR. I HAVE NEVER WRECKED A CAR IN MY LIFETIME, I WRECKED EVERYTHING IN THE FRONT OF MY CAR. MY FRONT BUMPER PLATE, ENERGY ABSORBER, LOWER GRILL RIGHT, LOWER GRILL LEFT, EMBLEM, RIGHT INNER FENDER, RIGHT FRONT BUMPER RETAINER AND FENDER, RIGHT INNER FENDER COVER, FRONT LOWER BUMPER FILLER, FRONT LOWER AIR DAM, PLASTIC RETAINERS UPPER, PLASTIC RETAINERS UPPER AND LOWER, PLASTIC RETAINERS LOWER RADIATOR, RIGHT RADIATOR SUPPORT BRACKET, RADIATOR CAP, COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY, COOLANT, FREON, ATF. I NO THAT I'M AN EXCELLENT DRIVER, AND AFTER THAT DAY I DIDN'T HAVE A CAR FOR 3 MONTHES. I WAS DEVASTATED. THE CAR ACCIDENT LEFT SKID MARKS ON THE ROAD, SO A PERSON CAN PRETTY MUCH READ THE ENTIRE STORY OF ACCIDENT. I FEEL MY CAR DID NOT RESPOND THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. I FEEL THAT THE CAR'S RECALLS HAVE EVERYTHING TO DO WITH ME SLAMMING INTO AN EMBANKMENT, I COULD HAVE DIED THAT DAY BECAUSE THE CAR DOESN'T RESPOND CORRECTLY. *TR
