A federal jury on Tuesday found General Motors at fault in a rollover accident that killed a 14-year-old boy, awarding his parents $3.5 million after a two-week trial. According to police, Bonnie Reynolds was driving a 1995 Chevy Blazer when she was hit by a drunk driver, causing her vehicle to spin, rolling over and ejecting her son. The Reynolds' lawyer said the Blazer was known to have a tendency to roll before 1995 and was re-engineered that year, but the redesign did not improve the SUV's stability.
