Ten problems related to air bag not deploy have been reported for the 1998 Dodge Intrepid. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
My wife hit a tree head-on going approx. 30 mph. She suffered injuries to her face, neck, back, wrist and knee. Airbag did not deploy. Contacted Chrysler, they picked-up the car and performed diagnostic evaluation from the computer and sent a letter stating the airbag was not defective. I find it hard to believe that the airbag was not defective as the impact and damage to the vehicle is significant.
We would like to find out why the air bags did not deploy and protect the loved ones.
I ran directly into an abandoned car that I did not see (it was dark outside). The impact to the other car was strong because my daughter's glasses flew off of her face. The impact was mainly on the right front side which if she did not have her seatbelt on, could have caused her to hit the windshield. We went to the emergency service at the hospital and I found out at that time that she had a pain in her neck for a very short period of time directly after the accident, but it left. I am concerned about why the airbags did not deploy.
