I have a Suzuki/forenza 2007 and on Monday 02/01/2010 while on my way to work I was involved in a car accident while in the turnpike north. I was going at about 60 to 65 miles/hour and another driver lost control of his car because of the rain and I hit him at that speed. It was a head collision/ t bone like and even though the front end of the car was all crashed including the hard bumper the air bags on my car did deploy. I do believe that there is something wrong with this system in this car. Updated 02/26/10 the consumer stated the vehicle was declared a total loss. The engine was cracked.
