| 2008 | SEAT BELTS | I PURCHASED A COLORADO ONE WEEK LATER MY BRAKES WENT OUT. AND I MANAGED NOT TO GET IN A CRASH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT . THEY TOLD ME THE VEHICLE SITS ON THE LOTS 4 MONTHS AND MONTHS AND STUFF MIGHT WIGGLE LOOSE. OK I FIGURED . THREE WEEKS LATER WHICH WOULD BE 3/5/09 I LEFT WORK AND IT WAS A NICE DAY I TURNED MY AC ON AND NOTICED MY BLOWER ONLY WORKED ON 2 AND 3 MY 1 AND 4 WOULD NOT WORK SO I DROVE TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE ABOUT 10 MILES AWAY AND TALKED TO THE GUY AND HE TOLD ME ITS PROBABLY BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR SWITCH. WHICH THE PART WAS ONLY 20 BUCKS BUT HE CONVINCED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER . BECAUSE IT UNDER WARRANTY AND THINGS LIKE THIS CAN SHORT OUT AND CAUSE FIRES. SO I LEFT THE STORE AND ABOUT 5 MILES DOWN THE ROAD STUFF STARTED SHORTING OUT ON MY TRUCK . THAN MY PASSENGER AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND THAN WITHIN 1/2 MILE STUFF WAS CRAZY THERE WAS SMOKE EVERY WHERE SO I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES WHICH THEY DIDN'T WORK SO I TRIED PULLING OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD MY STEERING WAS LOCKED UP.AND THAN SOMETHING EXPLODED UNDER MY DASH THAN I STARTED SEEING SMOKE BILLOWING OUT OF MY HOOD WHICH QUICKLY TURNED INTO FLAMES . KEEP IN MIND THE WHOLE TIME THIS IS GOING ON MY TRUCK IS GOING 60 MPH AND I HAVE NO BRAKES. SO THAN I STARTED SEEING FLAMES UNDER MY DASH THAN MY FLOOR THAN EVERYTHING ON MY FLOOR STARTED CATCHING ON FIRE AND I STARTED THROWING THING OUT THE WINDOW AND THE WHOLE TIME THIS IS GOING ON I AM TRAPPED IN MY TRUCK WHILE ITS ON FIRE MY DOOR LOCKS ARE SPACING OUT AND IM TRAPPED. ABOUT 1 MILE AFTER MY TRUCK WAS PRETTY MUCH FULLY ENGULFED THAN SOME HOW I MANAGED TO GET Y DOOR OPEN AND JUMP OUT BEFORE I LOOKED DOWN MY SPEDO SAID 35 MPH AND WHEN I JUMPED OUT I MANAGED TO LAND ON MY FEET AND MY TRUCK SLID IN THE MUD 4 ABOUT 50-75 FT WITHIN MINUTES 4 POLICE AND 18 FIREFIGHTERS WHERE THERE AND 2 OR 3 FIREFIGHTERS GOT HURT FROM SHRAPNO .
