I was involved in a high speed, rear end collision in which I was traveling at approx 55mph when another large vehicle changed lanes from right to left, right in front of me causing me to collide with them. The result was significant front end damage to my car and significant bodily injury to myself because of the failure of my brakes to adequately stop my car and the failure of the air bags to deploy resulting in my body and head rapidly flying forward into the steering wheel.
Takara recall, I had to replace the contact assembly clock after air bag sign would not turn off, certain cars were recalled due to this problem , I believe it should be looked into additional years as well since the problem is still on going.
