Air Bag Not Deploy problem #1

While trying to make a slight turn to right, (because of bend in road), the steering locked and then released which caused an over compensation to the right and resulted in a crash into a fence causing extensive property damage. The air bags failed to deploy causing a minor head injury.

Air Bag problem #2

This was a 45 mph front end collision and neither the drivers or the passenger airbags deployed, causing the driver to hit head and chest on windshield and dashboard (driver was wearing seat-belt). Have contacted local Acura dealer where car was purchased and they refuse to take any responsibility or action regarding this matter. I have owned other cars where a 15 mph front end collision has caused air bags to deploy. Acrua has a problem with this vehicle.
