| Air Bag Not Deploy problems |
Traveling aprox 30 mph, rear ended another vehicle. Seat belts did not lock on any passengers, airbags did not deploy.
Driving down I-65, and a semi truck tried getting over into my lane. I drove into the medium, lost control of the vehicle and spun out and hit the semi truck. It ended up running over the top of my car. My car was totaled. Everything from the front of the car to the steering wheel was destroyed, melted, etc. Luckily I wasn't hurt, because I locked myself against the seat; however the airbags never deployed. I luckily ended up alright physically; however somebody else with the same car may not have my stroke of luck that I had that day.
While driving 45 mph the vehicle collided with a deer. The dual airbags did not deploy. No injuries reported. Please provide additional information.
Consumer's vehicle was involved in a frontal collision. Upon impact, both frontal air bags failed to deploy. This caused the driver and passenger to sustain minor injuries, and were transported to the hospital. Vehicle was towed to a garage. The cause has not been determined at this time.
