My uncle has an XLR V he hit a pot hole that was the width of the lane and about 5" deep. I blew out all 4 run flats, warped all 4 wheels, unlatched and broke part of the hard top. The city paid for all damages.

Below the speed limit, 45.

Srsly? I know of 3 people who were killed in Cobalt crashes. Are they pretty safe? Yeah, but definitely not foolproof.
well i didn't know about them... actually i can think of 1 but i didn't think it was a rollover and i never said they were fool proof

I know you don't want to think about this kind of thing now, but I'd urge you to get back out there at an hour where traffic is light and look for the pothole. Take pics of the diameter, depth, etc... Just to cover your ass in the battle against the city.

Did you even read what I posted? Like at all? I wasn't racing....or doing anything wrong...I hit a pot hole and rolled and almost died....yet I'm an ******* and a ******?

You sir.....wow.

The last thing I wanted to do was cause problems for our community and the people in it. And you accuse me of intentionally almost killing myself? Thanks man....seriously.

Holy **** dude. Could be worse though. You're still living. Unfortunately my friend didn't make it when he rolled his s/c. But really sorry to hear your loss..

what i dont understand is how you rolled twice going less than 45 mph. did you hit a curb or somthing. it looks like you rolled down a hill, but it still takes some speed, or a hard hit to get a car to roll over.

im glad you are ok though. get a ss/tc. you will be a lot happier in the long run.
