Air Bag problem #1

2021 Mazda cx-9 frontal collision at a speed between 10-20 mph. Car shut down after collision and was not drivable. Concern is the driver side airbag did not deploy. (neither did passenger but there was no person in the passenger seat).

Air Bag problem #2

The driver side airbag did not deploy in a front end collision on the drivers side. When approaching a vehicle that had come to a sudden and complete stop, the brakes were applied hard to the Mazda cx-9 in order to stop, but after about 1 second they just totally let go and there was no braking at all and the Mazda continued to move forward until it slammed into the vehicle that was stopped. The mymazda app sent a message that stated that there was a brake system malfunctiom which is exactly what occurred and caused the accident.

Air Bag problem #3

Rear passenger handle and hook above seat in roof splintered into sharp projectiles flying through cabin when air bag deplopyed I showed the sharp pieces to my insurance adjuster the power of the right curtain air bag deployment broke the handle to pieces and if anyone had been in the back seat they could have had an eye put out or been emplailed by the sharp pieces.
