asking a question for my ups guy. his friend got in an accident and his neighbor told him that GM installed a switch for when you're in an accident...it will kill the motor so it won't run. he was hoping someone could help him out. when he turns the ignition it just clicks like the juice got cut off somewhere. i haven't seen the car so i don't know how badly it's fucked up or where it's fucked up.. just wondering if any of you gurus knows anything about this?

No such switch on that truck. If the fuel tank was hit/bent bad enough, its possible that the pump is broken off inside-thats what happened when our sub was rearended (at a dead stop, car that hit it was going ~35-40 mph).
