Side/window Air Bag problems of the 1996 Dodge Caravan

May 7, 2005, I was in an automobile accident. The other car was a 2004 Honda accord. The front passenger side of the accord hit the front driver side of my 1996 Dodge Caravan just in front of the driver's seat. The passenger side airbag inflated, the driver side airbag did not. Through the course of having this car, the "airbag" light was an issue almost from day one. When I would take it to the dealership, bill kay Chrysler in naperville, they would check it and find nothing wrong. Finally I was told to ignore the "airbag" light that there was a faulty sensor that could not be fixed.

While driving 40 mph consumer's vehicle was involved in a head on collision. The passenger side air bag deployed, however, the driver side air bag did not deploy. Driver sustained chest and neck injuries. , and front end suffered extensive damage.

The consumer was not notified of the air bag clock spring recall 02v293000 although the vehicle's VIN number was included in the recall. The driver's side air bag deployed prematurely while driving at 25 mph. The factory representative inspected the vehicle and indicated that there was undercarriage damage which caused the air bag deployment. The vehicle was never in a accident.

While traveling about 50mph on the highway without prior warning. A deer ran in front of the vehicle. She hit the deer and her driverside airbag didn't deploy. Please further information. Dealer is aware of the problem. Ts.

Traveling south at 55mph. Car from west side street pulled out onto highway. Stopped in the slow lane that I was in. Turned my wheel to left to avoid hitting other stopped car right in door. I hit her car in front of drivers door. Then we hit my passanger side with other car. Two impacts first head on then on side. Passanger side air bag deployed drivers side did not. As the driver I sustained chest and arm fractures. Contacted Dodge . Investogator came out and looked at van. Report from Dodge said the van worked as it should. How does one air bag go off and not the other. Why bother haveing two. Both had seat belt on.

Consumer was traveling about 20mph on street, passing onto highway. When another vehicle veered into her driver's side door, causing a collision, and forcing passenger's side airbag to go off. But driver's side airbag didn't deploy, the consumer was hit by a vehicle which was going paaroximarely 40-50 mph, vehicle was deemed a total loss. Nlm. Two people were injured in accident.

I am reporting the failure of the passenger side air-bag "clock spring" after the normal warranty period of this vehicle. The item is critical to the safety of the vehicle passenger and should not fail. The frequency of these failures should be investigated to insure that it is not endangering drivers and passenger of this type of vehicle.

While sitting in traffic consumer was rear ended by three vehicles, and the driver's side air bag didn't deploy.

I was driving approximately 35 mph. I hit a slight dip in the road and my driver's side air bag deployed, causing a tragic accident. When the police arrived my child's seat was not restrained in the rear seat. They closed the highway for 5 hours looking for a baby, who may have climbed out one of the broken windows, they thought. Thank god, she was at home.

When involved in an accident the deployment of the passenger side air bag caused injuries to the passenger's right eye and also consumer had concussion.

Consumer was in an accident and driver and passenger side air bag didn't deploy , please describe .
