This car was one-owner and very well taken care of and serviced routinely. I was driving home from work on the interstate and my car just lost power. I had no control of the car. It slammed into the concrete medium wall on drivers side, then spun around and lodged underneath the trailer of a semi-tractor. The semi hit the brakes and it projected me back across upon the top of the concrete medium where my car just rode to a stop. The air bags did not deploy. My beautiful car was totaled but, by the grace of god and seat belts I am alive. I have a concussion, sprained ankle, cuts, and bruises, but I am here to tell about it. Hopefully, the NHTSA will investigate and save someone else from injury or death. My car is available to inspect.

I was driving at about 45 miles an hour. Ford ranger in front of me slammed on brakes to avoid head on collision.

Our son was going appx 35 miles an hour and my husband was in the passenger front seat. A drunk driver pulled out of an apartment complex, literally on top of my husbands car - hitting them on the front right side. The airbags did not deploy and my husbands seat belt did not hold. He was in perfect health before this accident and is now a partial functioning quadriplegic. All because of defected air bags!!! I realized also, this is not the first time someone's seat belt did not hold!!.
While driving across an intersection, going 5 mph the consumers vehicle t-boned and the air bags did not deploy. Consumer had the vehicle towed.
Owner of the car was involved in a accident. It consisted of the driver hitting an 8 foot gate and knocking it down. Hitting the truck parked in that gate with the force of pushing it into the building, where the building was cracked on the inside. According to the manual its no reason why the airbags should not have deployed at this time. I damaged the front of the vehicle. Also the driver side has significant damage. Which as stated the owners manual are reasons the airbags should have deployed. Can you please look into this situation . I know I am not the only person this has happened to with an Chevrolet Impala 2002. I have made contact with other owners. Who have also filed claims with you. I know each accident/situation is different but please send me a response thank you for your time.
