5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/16/2019

Traveling at 25-30 mph on a dry, grass covered road, applied the brakes to slow down, no braking occurred; I then pushed on the brakes as hard as I could, I felt the abs pulsating, began to hear a "clunking" sound and feel a clicking in my brake pedal matching the timing of the clunking sound. Since the brakes were not responding I then turned the wheel to the left attempting to turn the truck, it did not respond; I then turned the steering wheel to the right, no response. The truck continued straight into a tree, head on collision. Not watching the speed I assume I was doing 20-25mph when the truck hit the tree, no airbags deployed. After the collision, when preparing for the tow, it was observed the drive shaft was disconnected at mid-way of the truck, not snapped, just off. This seemed a strange result with a head-on collision; the tow driver made the same observation.

I have had this truck since Jan 2017. I have only 10,000 miles on it and I have brought the trunk in to the dealership twice and I'm about to head in for a third time regarding the airbag indication light. The dealership just resets the computer system and as I drive off I had re appeared and the last time it took a few days but it keeps reappearing.
