| Air Bag problems |
The contact owns a 2017 Honda Pilot. The contact stated while her husband was driving approximately 35 - 40 mph, another vehicle crashed head-on into the vehicle. The driver's seat belt failed to retract upon impact and retracted after the crash, and the air bags failed to deploy. The driver's head struck the steering wheel causing severe head, neck, and back pain, which resulted in abnormal body heat and tingling sensations down to the toes. Medical attention was needed. A police report was filed. The vehicle was undrivable and was scheduled to be towed to a tow lot for evaluation. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, a case was filed, and the contact was referred to the dealer for a loaner vehicle. The dealer was contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 96,000.
N/a.
I was driving on highway and hit a deer going approximately 45mph. Significant front end damage. Airbags attempted to go off as car filled with smoke. Some of the areas where airbags are located like the steering wheel appear to have separated but not far enough for deployment. Seat belts locked up. Although my family is safe in this accident, I feel that this should be looked into. We may not be so lucky next time.
Takata recall.
