After slowly making a left into a parking space at dunkin donuts and trying to deploy my brakes, my car lunged forward spontaneously accelerating, jumped two curbs and hit a barrier and the window of the store.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 10/14/2021

I was involved in a side collision accident and my car was determined to be total loss by the at-fault's insurance company. I was lucky that my son and I came out with bruises and a few scratches but the main problem here is the airbags. It did not deploy at all when it was hit. The force hit us from lane 1 all the way to lane 3 and damages to the structure near cabin was found by one of the vertified accident body shop. So yes, no airbags were deployed.
