I was traveling southbound when I experienced a seizure and lost control of my vehicle. I proceeded to veer to the left where I clipped several cars that were headed northbound and had stopped due to the realization that my vehicle was not under control. I then proceeded over a tree lawn and into a parking lot. I hit a Dodge ram pickup with the right front corner of my vehicle and pushed that vehicle into another parked car that was next to it. Both vehicles ended up sideways and my vehicle ended up spun around 180 degrees. At this time my vehicle came to a stop. Police were called an paramedics arrived. The jaws of life were used to extract me from my vehicle. I was taken to a local hospital where it was determined that I suffered burst fractures of l1, l2, and l3. I also suffered an evulsion fracture of my left ankle. The police report states that I was travelling at a high rate of speed and that the vehicles which were northbound were just clipped. The airbags are both still within their cases as neither deployed. I would expect this of the passenger airbag as that seat was unoccupied but the driver bag should have deployed. The insurance investigator even expressed to my wife that he was surprised that the air bag did not deploy. I was having a seizure and was not conscious so I cannot provide any information other than what is in the police report. The report is #370763 issued by the township of clinton, michigan. The vehicle is currently located at copard auto salvage, 21000 hayden, woodhaven, mi 48183. The phone number is 734-365-0070. It will be held there for between 7 and 10 days from 8/26/2013.

I was a front seat passenger in a 1998 chevy Blazer SUV belonging to my daughter,when an accident occurred the air bags did not deploy. It was a bad crash, but I was the only person injured. Afterwards it was a stunning revolution to find this out about the airbags and it has left me wondering how many people out there think they are protected with airbags, when they may or may not work anyway. This auto had a previous owner and it seems to me the dealership should be responsible for letting the new buyer know if the airbags work or don't work. Thanks.

I own a 1996 chevy Blazer. My granddaughter was driving in wet weather, lost control of the vehicle and slammed into a rock cliff. The car is totaled and I am concerned because the airbag did not deploy. I believe the impact was strong enough that they should have deployed. It was a front end collision and she was going approximately 25 miles per hour. Although she was not going fast, the impact was very hard, enough to total the car. The whole front end was destroyed. She was very lucky that she was not seriously hurt, but I am concerned that if it had been a different situation that she could have been fatally wounded if the air bag did not deploy.
