1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2013

My sons had a crash in a 2005 Dodge Neon. They were going approximately 40-45 mph. They hit a mailbox with metal pipes, a parked durango, a parked malibu, decorative rocks in the corner, went airborne and totaled the whole passenger side front end of the car. Neither of the air bags deployed, and the seat belts didn't lock. We bought this card because of the safety features for our teenage son and they did not work.
