In the normal course of street driving, "service airbag" with screwdriver icon appears and dissapears. Mechanics cannot identify problem. While driving in the rain, wipers stopped. Motor continued running. Windshield wipers transmission broken. Dashboard lights randomly dim and brighten.
I was making a right hand turn (going maybe 5 mph) when rear ended by a 1998 chevy lumina. Her hood and front was all damaged and none of my air bags deployed (opened)!! . I hit my head on steering wheel and ear started bleeding. ( in a daze). Many bruises and hurt back and neck.
