3 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 12/21/2011

We were traveling down interstate 10 in mobile, al. It was a foggy night and the the road was damp. The truck spun sideways and regained traction heading head on into a concrete barrier. It hit the solid concrete barrier head on at 55 miles per hour. The bumper and frame of the truck was crushed. The concrete barrier was not broken. The airbags on the truck did not deploy. Both the driver and the passenger in the front seats hit their heads on the dash board and were rushed to the hospital for treatment. An airbag deployment should have prevented these hospitalizations. This case is very cut and dry. The truck did not miss any sensors. Due to the fact the airbag didn't deploy onstar was not called.
