1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 02/02/2021

I was stopped at a light behind another car I was rear ended which pushed my truck into the back of the car ahead of me so hard it made my truck airborne and rolled 6 times thru a city intersection. The front of my truck was crushed almost to nothing out of the 4 vehicles involved mine was the only one where the airbags didn't deploy. Contributing to all the injuries I sustained and I was the only who had injuries.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 04/11/2015

Vehicle is a small pick up extended cab with half doors that have rear side hinges. Air bag service light was set. Upon repair diagnosis, it was discovered that wires that travel between the body and the left side half door -behind the drivers door were broken from the door opening and closing. Since this half door is used very little, there is a defect with the quality of wire that cannot withstand flexing by opening and closing the door. These wires control the pre tensioner assembly in the half door. When the wires are broken it disables the entire air bag restraint system. Wires were not physically damaged by any other means. These wire should not be broken on this age vehicle with little use.
