While traveling on us 33 west bound in marysville ohio, just in front of exit Honda parkway around 6 am, traffic came to a stop, as I was slowing down, estimating around 50 mph (70 speed limit), the car behind me crashed into the the rear of my car, after collision I responded by trying to steer my car to left, but hit the car in front of me. All three cars involved in the crash were totaled. The rear impact shattered the rear window and significant damage occurred to the rear of my car and also the front from the forward collision. The vehicle's airbags did not deploy, I hit my head on the steering wheel, and suffered from a diagnosed concussion as well as a severe strain to my neck. One year ago, I had taken my vehicle to a Dodge dealer to get the airbag replaced due to a recall. Considering this, I reached out to Dodge and they assigned a case number to the incident. It has now been four weeks, since I have contracted them, and Dodge is yet to respond to my issue. I have called several times each week, following up on the case but has not contacted me our provided me with any information. Dodge has claimed to have attempted to reach out to me, but cited an issue with having wrong number, even as I have confirmed / verified my contact information every time I have contacted them.

I was recently in a car accident where my brakes locked on me and I went sliding into another vehicle. When the impact occurred my air bags never deployed and my brakes were still locked.

I was on the freeway doing 65 mph, and was rear ended by a drunk driver in an SUV doing approximately 120 mph. At the time of impact my airbags did not deploy. My vehicle did not spin out of control or anything like that, but had I not had control of my car, who knows if the airbag would have deployed.

: the contact stated while in a left hand curve at 23 mph, the passenger side tire separated from the wheel. The tire pressure sensor light did not illuminate to warn the contact of low tire pressure. This caused the vehicle to go off of the road into a trench, bouncing between either sides of the trench. The vehicle hit six trees and ended up pinned against the mountain on the passenger side. Most of the damage occurred on the passenger side. The airbags did not deploy and the seat belts were worn. The indicator light that states the passenger side airbag was deactivated was illuminated. The occupants sustained injuries. There was a police report taken at the scene. The vehicle was towed to a dealership, where repairs were started. That dealership was unable to perform all necessary repairs; therefore, the vehicle was towed to another dealership.
