I was driving at about 35 miles an hour when a person made an illegal u turn in front of me. The impact was in the dead center of my car. The air bag at my feet deployed but the one in the steering wheel did not. I had severe bruising from the impact with the steering wheel and the seat belt. I have pictures of the impact and the lower air bag deployment without the steering wheel air bag.
Our daughter was in a 3 car accident. There was bridge construction and all of a sudden traffic went from moving at highway speed to stopped. Directly ahead of our daughter was a refrigerator truck. Our daughter was not able to stop quickly enough and struck the back of the refrigerator truck. The speed listed above is an estimate. No one in the other vehicles were hurt, nor did their cars sustain repairable damage. My daughter's car was stopping straight at the point of collision and struck the back of the truck square. The officer at the scene suggested she be checked out in the er. My daughter sustained soft tissues injuries and bruises. After some time with the chiropractor she should be fine. My question/concern deals with the air bag system. The driver knee airbag deployed, the steering wheel airbag did not. Is that possible? are there situations where it is appropriate for the lower bag to deploy without deploying the steering wheel air bag? the seat belt did stop her, although it left a large red mark on her shoulder. If the system worked correctly that is fine. We would like to hear from someone with expertise in this area to make sure that there is nothing faulty in her car. If needed we can supply photos to show the exact damage. The vehicle is at the dealership now for repairs, so the mileage is a good estimate. Thank-you for your help.
My daughter driving the vehicle, ran off road. Over corrected. Vehicle over turned end over end several times landing on side. She had to be removed through the windshield. Not one air bag deployed. She has a badly broken left arm requiring surgery to repair. She suffered multiple contusions and a concussion. The vehicle is a total loss.
Driving on the highway at 65 mph car looses power you cant accelerate it hesitates and wants to shut off at times it does it wont go up hill and when approaching a stop light hesitates and shuts off you start it back up fine and it wont go transmission fails its automatic transmission does it once transmission warms up.
