My 2012 Jeep Patriot was struck on the driver side by a van. The state patrol officer estimated the speed on impact was around 25 mph from the vehicle that hit mine but may have been underestimated because the crush damage and distance the Jeep was pushed seems to indicate a higher impact/speed. I was struck my driver side front panel and driver door. Both driver and passenger front aribags deployed, but I had no passanger traveling with me. After everything settled from being knocked unconscious I realized that the side curtain and side impact airbags never deployed. It looks like it may have tried but failed as part of the airbag was exposed. I was transported to a hospital. They found multiple internal injuries and still looking into rotator cuff area and trauma to it. Other injuries included bleeding/kidneys by blood in urine, partial collapsed lung with major bruised ribs, concussion. The vehicle was declared a total loss. . . Updated 09-09-14.
