1998 Volkswagen golf Gti rolled into a ditch off 101 near gilroy. Three days prior it had had serviced entirely by michael's auto body in downtown san jose. With repairs totalling $2000. These repairs were supposedly merely "wear and tear" from a towing by the sjpd. The antilock brakes locked and the airbag did not release.
