I had a head on collision with a big rig on the freeway on I-5 Monday August 31st. I was going about 68/miles an hr when the big rig hit me from the front. The impact was pretty bad because I have cervical strain and been in bed since Monday. Also strained my back due to me being thrown forward n back even with my seat belt on. The strange part is that my air bag didn't go inflate with that much impact. I think if the air bag would've inflated then that would've saved me from all this injury. 5 years ago, I was in an accident as well and at that time I rear ended a still car going about 65 miles and at that time the air bad didn't go off either, my concern at this point is that there's some defect in the air bag in my car because it should've inflated this time due to the impact but it didn't.

2001 Honda Accord srs light remains on. Service dept. Said car is "safe" to drive. "good news is that the airbags won't deploy when you are driving around.

A SUV ran a stop sign and I impacted the SUV, at 45 miles per hour, directly against the right hand SUV rear door and wheel. My front sts (airbags) failed to deploy (this was the second accident in one year, both times no deployment) in a front end accident that totaled the car (estimate $7,000 for complete front end). Following the first incident, which caused $5,000 plus in frontal damage, Honda of America had the car's srs system inspected and repaired. Honda of american now refuses to either look at or discuss the second incident. I look at a failure to deploy in a major accident as a major safety concern. And further look at Honda of America's failure to take the problem seriously as a major failure on their part concerning the safety of the public traveling in their products.
