Takata recall - I believe this is a takata recall, thought I can't find the information. I have a 2003 chevy Trailblazer. We recently had a high impact collision resulting in injuries, directly as a result of a failure of airbags to deploy upon impact. The vehicle was in motion, traveling straight at approximately 45 miles per hour, when we struck another vehicle in the road illegally.
The contact owned a 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer. The contact stated that another driver in front of her slammed on the brake pedal, which caused the contact to lose control of the vehicle. As a result, the contact's vehicle experienced a rollover. None of the air bags deployed. The contact sustained a deep laceration to the knee and a torn ligament that required medical attention. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000. The VIN was not available.
The contact owns a 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer. While driving 25 to 35 mph, an animal appeared in the road. The contact swerved and crashed into a telephone pole. The air bags deployed. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The manufacturer was not aware of the failure. A police report was not filed. The contact sustained head, neck, and chest injuries that required medical attention. The failure mileage was 135,000.
Air bag and seat belt light stay on.
Driving approximately 40 to 43 mph when another vehicle turned directly in front of me. Total frontal damage buckling up hood on my car as I hit other vehicle in front-end passenger side. Their airbag deployed but mine didn't, even with total front end damage to my car. Had seatbelt on, but due to impact still pulled my whole body forward (like crash test dummy). This was a very hard crash totaling my car.
While traveling in slow traffic, the car in front of my wife stopped. By the time she noticed they stopped it was too late and she hit the back of their Ford explorer moving at around 20-30mph. The front end of our Trailblazer was crushed. My daughter and wife were wearing their seat belts. The officers and paramedics on the scene were shocked that the airbags did not come out with the amount of front end damage. They had to cut the battery wires to prevent the airbag from coming out later when she cleaned out the Trailblazer. An example of how much damage was taken to the front end, the corner fenders were pushed back so far they couldnt open wither front door. The fenders were crushed into the doors keeping them shut. I would think with an impact like that the airbags would have came out, it was a square hit meaning even damage across the front end.
The contact owns a 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer. While the vehicle was parked, the air bags deployed without warning. The vehicle was driven to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000. Updated 7/16/cn.
2003 chevy Trailblazer air bags never came out after having impact into two trees forcing the driver into the steering wheel. Nothing at this time has been corrected to repair the SUV. Gm need to be alerted of this failure to correct the problem!.
My seatbelt light comes on. I take it to the dealer for correction along with other maintenance issues I had about my vehicle. All this is under warranty. After regular maintenance is taken care of the seatbelt light stays on. The light never gets fixed or goes out. The vehicle was never in an accident that makes the bags deploy. I bring the truck back many times but the issue never gets taken care of. Now that the warranty is off they want to charge me $1000 for repairs that should have been taken care of under the warranty and the truck will not pass inspection until this gets taken care of. .
Traveling 55 mph when another vehicle crossed the road causing me to hit the side of his vehicle head on. No air bags deployed.
