I was turning through a left bend on a residential road at approximately 45 mph. Posted speed 40 mph, when the rear axle split at the drivers side hub. This caused me to spin around and crash between a power pole and a tree. My air bags never deployed even with frontal impact and both side door impacted. We walked away with minor whiplash and a few bumps here and there, but the van was totaled with less than 31,000 miles on it and it was well maintained.
The contact stated he left the road vehicle struck a tree and went into an embankment. Striking the tree kept the vehicle from going over the embankment. The accident occurred while swerving to avoid hitting a dog. The road conditions were dry at the time of the accident. Upon impact, front air bags did not deploy. The consumer stated the tire blew out as well. Updated 11/29/05.
