Air Bag Not Deploy problems of the 2008 Dodge Nitro

The airbags failed to deploy when I was in an accident. I t-boned another vehicle at approximately 35 mph, when they turned into my path. I hit the car squarely in the rear passenger door. Both vehicles came to rest 90+ degrees clockwise from the direction we were traveling. The plastic front bumper, grill, fenders, and inner fenders were destroyed. The right side front tire of my Nitro was pushed back about 3" from its normal position. The center support of the bumper was broken and pushed about 12" into the radiator. I am sure there is a defect that prevented the air bags from working.

Takata recall on 9-6-2012 my husband was involved in a car accident not his fault. He was the 3rd car in right hand lane heading east at a stoplight with cars in the next lane also at the stoplight next to him, a truck hit him going about 55-65 mph and his head hit the steering wheel causing him to have injuries requiring lifeflight to a trauma center in houston, TX. He had a brain injury and required 124 stitches in his mouth and a severed spleen. He had a brain bleed and it never fully went away. Many visits to the neurosurgeon and cat scans followed for a year. He was never able to go back to work. He was 65 at the time and was a correctional officer at texas dept of criminal justice. His personality changed due to the pain he suffered and he died 7-2-17 with headaches and a brain bleed going on. His air bags never deployed in the accident. Our life changed significantly and I went back to work after retirement to meet our responsibilities. My pictures will not upload. 20171025.

Driving a 2008 Dodge Nitro. Went of the road into a ravine. Went through a barbwire fence, over boulders, sideswipped a tree, and hit a big oak tree head on. The airbags did not deploy cause documented whiplash. I was wearing a seatbelt.

The person had just been at the stop sign but did not see that I was passing by as I had no stop sign. Their car collided with mine on the driver / left passenger side. The airbags never deployed. The car shut off and I was unable to turn in on to move it. The driver side door was jammed shut. The car was in the shop for over 30 days due to the damage.

The contact owns a 2008 Dodge Nitro. While driving 40 mph another vehicle crashed into the front end of her vehicle. The seat belts did not secure the occupants and the airbags did not deploy. One of the occupants spine was knocked out of the alignment. The vehicle was towed to a local repair facility, and the vehicle was being repaired. The dealer was contacted and they stated that the air bags were not defective. Two engineers were sent to diagnose the vehicle. They concluded that all components were functioning normally. The failure and current mileages were 31000.
