    We slipped on some black ice and the jeep went up a hill and then we flipped and landed upside down. This is the second time this happened the other time was last year feb 18 2013 when my 2001 jeep grand cherokee rolled over three times before landing upside down. Last year it was me and my 3 sons. Thus year it was me and my husband. I injured my leg and back. Also neither times did the air bags deploy. *tr
