My wife was in a collision on 12/12/03 which involved another vehichle that ran a stop sign and my wife's new 2003 Acura Tl hit the vehicle at fault in the drivers side door. I have included pictures of the property damage incurred. The front airbags did not deploy. I reported this incident to the Acura dealer in fort walton beach immediately that I purchased this from and gave them a chance to test the airbags before the car was fixed. They declined and informed me they would test the airbag system once it was repaired. The case file# with the dealer was b012003-12-1601041. Everybody that I spoke with regarding this was amazed that the airbags did not depoy on a front end crash that caused $7183 dollars worth of damage. The core support of the car had to be replaced. I have heard of other Acura failures for front airbags and wanted to see if there was a defect in this particular model. The dealer was not that helpful. Mr. Kirk perks the district manager did agree to meet with me to discuss and the dealer performed an airbag test , however the auto repair shop stated to me that there was no way to accurately test the airbag system. My concern now is obviously if these airbags will deploy on any future incidents.
Purchased 2002 Acura brand new. During an accident, the driver air bag did not deploy during crash. The passenger air bag deployed when no one was in the passenger seat during crash. Acura 3. 2 Tl was featured to be a safe vehicle in advertisements. It had front and side airbags. Acura is combining target markets for approach to safety, best value for high end car, upper-end demographics. For a price of over $28,000, vehicle should be be flawless. Let the buyer beware. Consumer product safety commission should issue a recall.
