I was traveling down I-4 west in Haines City, FL after leaving Walt Disney World after my very fist day on the Magical Job! When a 2007 Chevy Cobalt had been hit by another car loosing control and hydroplaning in front of me. I had no where to go other then hitting her driver side at 35-45mph at breaking. At that point I was struck by no other than 1999 Dodge Neon ( 5 ***** STAR) car rear ended at 70-75mph, followed by another hit at an unknown speed. There where 6 Cars in total, and my airbag never deployed. In results of me suffering head injuries, lower back, leg, and abdominal pain.

Not only did the airbag did not deploy, but the steering column tilt locking mechanism BROKE and the whole thing feel in my lap! Also the locking mechanism for the driver seat back rest gave out during crash 2 throwing me backwards to look at my roof! I was wearing my seat belt at the time of the crash. I am now attending rehab 3 days a week for my back problems. I have extreme nightmares of the crash, all I can see is a RAM!

~RAM THOUGH now I see how they came up with these slogans! GRAB LIFE BY THE HORN it speaks for its self as I thought my LIFE was good as DEAD! I feel more safe in a DEATH TRAP CAR, than this SH*T!

I was told that these was a 5 star car rating, and the crash are 5 star rating by no other than the SALESMAN AT DODGE! whom ever came up with these ratings should be SHOOT! I want to know what happen to the 4 other stars out of the 5 (DID THEY GO ON VACATION)
