Thank you Toyota. I believe you saved my life!
Submitted By: Magdalena S. - San Diego, CA

Hi there,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I believe my Toyota RAV 4 saved my life. I am not kidding. I was driving in the fast lane on interstate 5 in San Diego a few weeks ago when all of a sudden the car in front of me spun out of control, apparently trying to avoid a tire in the road. I swerved my 2003 Toyota in order to avoid crashing the car in front of me, which in turn hit the cement median. I droved off the interstate and avoided a 5 person car crash, which caused serious injury to all of its passengers. My car flipped over 3 times at 65 miles an hour. I ended up upside down hanging by my seatbelt. I should have died but because of the amazing structure of my vehicle and the durability of the seatbelts, I was fine. I had some minor scratches and bruising but all the witnesses said it was miraculous that I not only survived the crash but did not break a single bone. I would like to thank Toyota for building such a wonderful and safe car. I am happy that I made the choice to be a Toyota car owner!
