Colorado Woman Trapped For Days After Wreck Sues GM

A Colorado woman who was trapped inside her car for six days after losing control and rolling 300 feet (90 meters) down a mountainside is suing General Motors, saying her 2009 Chevy Malibu’s safety features failed, court records showed on Wednesday. Kristin Hopkins, 45, who had both of her lower legs amputated following the April 2014 crash, alleges in the federal lawsuit filed on Tuesday that the automaker knew before her wreck that the Malibu’s "crash avoidance" system was defective.
