| Air Bag Not Deploy problems |
Good morning, I purchased my 2005 Mitsubishi Galant ES in June or July of 2005 with approximately 1,400 miles and for the pasted few weeks i¿ve notice the passenger air bag is rising/separating more and more of the dashboard exactly above the glove compartment silver trimming. I contact the Mitsubishi dealer (866-346-0796) on sept. 10, 2013 where I my purchased the vehicle and explained to them in detail the problem with the passenger air bag. The service writer asked for the last eight digit of the vehicle VIN # which I provided. The service writer pulled up the history in his computer and advised me that the car was out of warranty and there is nothing they can do about. I was very surprised by his answer and told him I will contact Mitsubishi corp. Office to find a resolution to this problem before it get worst. And for the record I've previously owned two montero Mitsubishi SUV.
The contact owned a 2005 Mitsubishi Galant. While driving approximately 40 mph, the contact's vehicle crashed into the rear of another vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The contact sustained injuries to the chest, back, and neck. Medical attention was required. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to an independent towing facility. The VIN and failure mileage were unknown.
